Bill & Gloria Gaither - Sweet, Sweet Spirit
Trying to walk in the steps of the Savior
Trying to follow our Savior and King;
Shaping our lives by His blessed example
Happy
how happy
the songs that we bring.
How beautiful to walk in the steps of the Savior
Stepping in the light
stepping in the light
Led in paths of light.
Pressing more closely to Him Who is leading
When we are tempted to turn from the way;
Trusting the arm that is strong to defend us
our praises each day.
Walking in footsteps of gentle forbearance
Footsteps of faithfulness
mercy
and love
Looking to Him for the grace freely promised
our journey above.
Upward
still upward
we follow our Guide;
When we shall see Him
“the King in His beauty
”
our place at His side
