"Walk in the Light."
1Walk in the light! so shalt thou know
That fellowship of love,
His Spirit only can bestow,
Who reigns in light above.
2Walk in the light! and thou shalt own
Thy darkness passed away,
Because that light hath on thee shone
In which is perfect day.
3Walk in the light! and e'en the tomb
No fearful shade shall wear;
Glory shall chase away its gloom,
For Christ hath conquered there!
4Walk in the light! and thine shall be
A path, though thorny,--bright:
For God, by grace, shall dwell in thee,
And God himself is light!
