====================================
w&m: Sydney Carter, 1971
arr. Lionel Dakers
tune: Southcote
meter: 9.9.7.9 w/refrain

[Verse 1]
One more step along the world I go,
one more step along the world I go;
from the old things to the new,
keep me travelling along with you.

[Refrain]
And it's from the old I travel to the new;
keep me travelling along with you.

[Verse 2]
Round the corners of the world I turn,
more and more about the world I learn;
all the new things that I see
you'll be looking at along with me.

[Refrain]

[Verse 3]
As I travel through the bad and good,
keep me travelling the way I should;
where I see no way to go
you'll be telling me the way, I know.

[Refrain]

[Verse 4]
Give me courage when the world is rough,
keep me loving though the world is tough;
leap and sing in all I do,
keep me travelling along with you.

[Refrain]

[Verse 5]
You are older than the world can be,
you are younger than the life in me;
ever old and ever new,
keep me travelling along with you.

[Refrain]
