Tune: | [A stranger walked with me one day] |
Composer: | P. P. Bilhorn |
1 A stranger walked with me one day,
O how my heart burned by the way;
Then who it was I could not say;
But now I know it was Jesus.
Chorus:
It was Jesus,
It was Jesus,
He walked and talked with me;
I knew not, then, that it was he,
But now I know it was Jesus.
2 He walked with me till eventide,
Then entered in with me to bide;
I knew not who was by my side,
But now I know it was Jesus. [Chorus]
3 He helps me in my unbelief,
My burdened soul He gives relief;
He bears my sorrow and my grief;
And now I know it was Jesus. [Chorus]
4 I sit like Mary at His feet,
With Him in close communion sweet;
He walks with me upon the street;
And now I know it was Jesus. [Chorus]
5 How blessed thus to walk with Him,
In morn’s bright hour, or evening dim,
My cup of joy o’erflows its brim,
While I am walking with Jesus. [Chorus]
