Lyrics 1 Beautiful way, hallowed and blest, Leading us home to a mansion of rest; Wisdom declares, happy are they, Walking with God in the beautiful way. 2 Softly a voice murmurs within, Turn from the world and the pleasures of sin; Come and rejoice; why will ye stay? Walk in the shining, the beautiful way. 3 Beautiful way, peaceful and bright, Gently from Eden reflecting the light; Cheerful the beam, tranquil the ray, Guiding the soul in the beautiful way. 4 Beautiful way, gladly we sing, Praise the thanksgiving to Jesus we bring; Still may His love teach us to pray, Help us to walk in the beautiful way.
