Jesus Walks

I remember these words from a song almost a lifetime ago,
"...and he walks with me."
He did, and does and will - walk with me on this journey.

"...and he talks with me."
In sitting with lunch with a close friend, in the uninhibited smile of a little child, in the moment I feel like throwing in the towel and don't because somewhere, somehow there he is and there is hope.

"...and he tells me I am his own."
Even when I fail, even when I'm not sure who I am or where I'm to go next -
I am my beloved's and he is mine...
and he,
walks with me.
