Down in the valley with my Savior I would go,
Where the flowers are blooming and the sweet waters flow;
Everywhere He leads me I would follow, follow on,
Walking in His footsteps till the crown be won.
Where the flowers are blooming and the sweet waters flow;
Everywhere He leads me I would follow, follow on,
Walking in His footsteps till the crown be won.
Follow! follow! I would follow Jesus!
Anywhere, everywhere, I would follow on!
Follow! follow! I would follow Jesus!
Everywhere He leads me I would follow on!
Anywhere, everywhere, I would follow on!
Follow! follow! I would follow Jesus!
Everywhere He leads me I would follow on!

Down in the valley with my Savior I would go,
Where the storms are sweeping and the dark waters flow;
With His hand to lead me I will never, never fear,
Dangers cannot fright me if my Lord is near.

Down in the valley, or upon the mountain steep,
Close beside my Savior would my heart ever keep;
He will lead me safely in the path that He has trod,
Up to where they gather in the rest of God.

It's my first time hearing this melody too Rosita, but like Geraldine and Nelly I hope it will be my anthem until I have come to the end of this life. There is nothing safer than to follow the Creator. He knows best.

That song kept coming to my mind today. I was about 25 years old and I sang that song and now I am 84 years old and it still is the prayer of my heart.

I remember this hymn from my school days at Julien Day School Ganganagar, West Bengal, India. We sang this hymn among others at Sunday service at our School Church. I was in the Grade 4 in school then in 1981. Very old and sweet memories.

I heard it the time it was translated into Tamil. Glorious hymn.

First time to hear this song, it's beautiful. What have we to fear down in the valley when we go with our Savior Jesus! As long as we have His dear presence, the smile of His face, that's all that matters. Glad sister Nelly enjoyed it.

I am over 80 and this was one of my favourites when I was young and we sung it at Sunday School. I couldn't remember the letter quite well and I am thrilled I found it.
