Sheet music
- 1The sands have been washed in the footprintsOf the Stranger on Galilee’s shore,And the voice that subdued the rough billowsIs heard in Judea no more;But the path of that lone GalileanWill I joyfully follow today;And the toils of the road will seem nothingWhen I get to the end of the way;And the toils of the road will seem nothingWhen I get to the end of the way.
- 2There are so many hills to climb upward,And I often am longing for rest;But the Lord who appoints me my pathwayKnows just what is needful and best.I know in His Word He hath promisedThat my strength it shall be as my day;And the toils of the road will seem nothingWhen I get to the end of the way;And the toils of the road will seem nothingWhen I get to the end of the way.
- 3When the last feeble step have been taken,And the gates of that city appear,And the beautiful songs of the angelsFloat out on my listening ear;When all that now seems so mysteriousWill be bright and as clear as the day;And the toils of the road will seem nothingWhen I get to the end of the way;And the toils of the road will seem nothingWhen I get to the end of the way.
