1.In sorrow I wandered, my spirit oppressed,
But now I am happy, securely I rest;
From morning till evening glad carols I sing,
And this is the reason. I walk with the King.

2.For years in the fetters of sin I was bound,
The world could not help me, no comfort I found;
But now like the birds and the sunbeams of spring,
I'm free and rejoicing. I walk with the King.

3.O soul near despair in the lowlands of strife,
Look up and let Jesus come into your life;
The joy of salvation to you He would bring
Come into the sunlight and walk with the King.

Refrain
I walk with the King, hallelujah!
I walk with the King, praise His Name!
No longer I roam, my soul faces home,
I walk and I talk with the King.

I walk with the King.
