Walk in the light! and you will know That fellowship of love His Spirit only can bestow, Who reigns in light above.

Walk in the light! and sin, despised, Shall never rule again; The blood of Jesus Christ, your Lord, Shall cleanse from ev'ry stain.

Walk in the light! and you will find A heart made truly his, Who dwells in cloudless light enshrined In whom no darkness is.
