TEXT.
Do justice, love kindness,
walk humbly with our God;
Show mercy, grow compassion,
and live and love and humbly walk with God.
Let others be the clanging cymbal;
Let others have their boast or brag;
Let others cling to the things their eyes see;
But let me walk humbly with Thee.
Let others know the pull of fortune;
Let others know the thrill of fame;
But as for me Lord, give me the strength and humility
to walk only, and humbly, with Thee.
