Chorus 1:

Walk sweet, my steps,
Beat soft, my heart,
Speak clear, my lips,
He is near.
Shine bright, my stars,
Be wide, my sky,
Smile down, my moon,
He is here!
Go swift, breeze of the evening,
Wherever my love may be;
Touch his hand and whisper my name,
And open his heart to me.
Be still, my soul,
Be real, my dreams,
Be kind, dear heaven, above.
Let me walk sweet,
And talk sweet,
And be sweet,
And see sweet;
And be with the one I love.

Chorus 2:

Walk sweet, my steps,
Beat soft, my heart,
Speak clear, my lips,
He is near.
Shine bright, my stars,
Be wide, my sky,
Smile down, my moon,
He is here!
Go swift, breeze of the evening,
Wherever my love may be;
Touch his hand and whisper my name,
And open his heart to me.
Be still, my soul,
Be real, my dreams,
Be kind, dear heaven, above.
Let me walk sweet,
And talk sweet,
And be sweet,
And see sweet;
And be with the one I love.
Walk sweet, my love,
Talk sweet, my love,
Walk sweet.
