If the path I travel

| 1. | If the path I travel |
| | Lead me to the cross, |
| | If the way Thou choosest |
| | Lead to pain and loss, |
| | Let the compensation |
| | Daily, hourly, be |
| | Shadowless communion, |
| | Blessed Lord, with Thee. |
| 2. | If there's less of earth joy, |
| | Give, Lord, more of heaven. |
| | Let the spirit praise Thee, |
| | Though the heart be riven; |
| | If sweet earthly ties, Lord, |
| | Break at Thy decree, |
| | Let the tie that binds us, |
| | Closer, sweeter, be. |
| 3. | Lonely though the pathway, |
| | Cheer it with Thy smile; |
| | Be Thou my companion |
| | Through earth's little while; |
| | Selfless may I live, Lord, |
| | By Thy grace to be |
| | Just a cleansd channel |
| | For Thy life through me. |
