Christian, walk carefully: danger is near

Christian, walk carefully: danger is near!
On in thy journey with trembling and fear;
Snares from without, and temptations within,
Seek to entice thee once more into sin.
Christian, walk carefully: danger is near!

Christian, walk cheerfully through the fierce storm,
Dark though the sky with its threats of alarm;
Soon will the clouds and the tempest be o'er,
Then with thy Saviour thou'lt rest evermore.
Christian, walk cheerfully: through the fierce storm.

Christian, walk prayerfully: oft wilt thou fall,
If thou forget on thy Saviour to call:
Safe thou shalt walk through each trial and care,
If thou art clad in the armour of prayer.
Christian, walk prayerfully: fear lest thou fall.

Christian, walk hopefully: sorrow and pain
Cease when the haven of rest thou shalt gain:
Then from the lips of the Judge, thy reward —
“Enter thou into the joy of thy Lord."
Christian, walk hopefully: rest thou shalt gain.
