1. We shall see the desert as the rose,
    Walking in the king’s highway;  
    There’ll be singing where salvation goes,
    Walking in the King’s highway.

                CHORUS

        There’s a high there and a way,
        Where sorrow shall flee away,
        And the light shines bright as the day,
        Walking in the king’s highway.

2. We shall wee the glory of the Lord,
    Walking in the King’s highway;
    And behold the beauty of his Word,
    Walking in the King’s highway.

3. There the rain shall come upon the ground,
    Walking in the King’s highway;
    For the purified the way is made,
    Walking in the King’s highway.

4. There no rav’nous beast shall make afraid,
    Walking in the king’s highway;
    For the purified the way is made,
    Walking in the King’s highway.

5. No unclean thing shall pass o’er here,
    Walking in the King’s highway:
    But the ransom’d ones without a fear,
    Walking in the King’s highway.
