I love the personal prayer inherent in this spiritual song, written many years ago:

I Want Jesus to Walk with Me

I want Jesus to walk with me.
I want Jesus to walk with me.
All along my pilgrim journey, Lord,
I want Jesus to walk with me.

In my trials, Lord, walk with me.
In my trials, Lord, walk with me.
When my heart is almost breaking, Lord,
I want Jesus to walk with me.

When I’m in trouble, Lord, walk with me.
When I’m in trouble, Lord, walk with me.
When my head is bowed in sorrow, Lord,
I want Jesus to walk with me.

Sometimes my trials are just too bitter to bear, and all I can say is, “Lord, walk with me.”

When I can’t think of anywhere else to turn, “Lord, walk with me.”
