Verse 1

Though the world has forsaken God,

Treads a different path, lives a different way;

I walk the road that the Saviour trod,

And all may know I live under Jesus’ way.

Verse 2

Men will look at the life I lead,

See the side I take, and the things I love;

They judge my Lord by my every deed;

Lord, set my affections on things above.

Verse 3

When assailed in temptations hour,

By besetting sins, by the fear of man,

Then I can know Jesus’ mighty power,

And become like Him in His perfect plan.

Verse 4

Here on earth people walk in night;

With no lamp to guide, they are dead in sin;

I know the Lord who can give them light:

I live, yet not I, but Christ within.
