Verse 1

I walk in danger all the way; The thought shall never leave me
That Satan, who has marked his prey, Is plotting to deceive me.
This foe with hidden snares May seize me unawares
If e'er I fail to watch and pray: I walk in danger all the way.

Verse 2

I pass through trials all the way, With sin and ills contending;
In patience I must bear each day The cross of God's own sending;
Oft in adversity I know not where to flee;
When storms of woe my soul dismay, I pass through trials all the way.

Verse 3

Death doth pursue me all the way, Nowhere I rest securely,
He comes by night, he comes by day, He takes his prey most surely;
A failing breath and I In death's strong grasp may lie
To face eternity for aye: Death doth pursue me all the way.

Verse 4

I walk 'mongst angels all the way They shield me and befriend me;
All Satan's pow'r is held at bay When heav'nly hosts attend me;
They are my sure defense, All fear and sorrow, hence!
Unharmed by foes, do what they may, I walk 'mongst angels all the way.

Verse 5

I walk with Jesus all the way, His guidance never fails me,
Within His wounds I find a stay, When Satan's pow'r assails me;
And by His footsteps led, My path I safely tread,
In spite of ills that threaten may, I walk with Jesus all the way.
