        Walking, walking through valleys; still I don't walk alone. Worn, weary with each step; still I am not abandoned. From such glorious Light I am encouraged in the journey, empowered by the Shepherd who leads me among the wolves hidden; I am redeemed! Walking, walking with Jesus, the Light Of The World, listening as the Good Shepherd speaks a better word to my weary soul as He carries me on.
