Hymn Lyrics Search - Name That Hymn

An old, old song I used to sing as a child -- I think it was called The Pathway to God. Anyhow the chorus goes something like this:

"But a golden day is dawning in Old Gethsemane
The morning will bring singing the song of victory.
There's a new highway to Glory, the one that Jesus trod.
And with a halo (could be hello) we're traveling the pathway to God."

Is this song familiar to anyone?

Thanks,
Mercedes

Gethsemane

On a hillside so lonely, Knelt Jesus one day,
Soul wounded and weary, He went there to pray;
By friends there forsaken, So lonely He feels,
To heaven He's crying in helpless appeals.

Chorus:
But a golden day has broken in old Gethsemane,
The mornings all come singing The songs of victory;
There's a new highway to glory, The road that Jesus trod,
With a halo we're trav'ling The pathway to God.

On a hillside and garden Such suff'ring I see;
In humble submission, He's making His plea;
His blood-streams are bursting, Come sinner, be true,
His cheeks are stained crimson For me and for you.

Chorus

O, the shadows are creeping, The Savior in pain,
The dark skies are weeping, With dewdrops as rain;
The angels bear witness To Jesus divine,
Surrendered completely, O, Savior of mine.

Chorus

But a new day is breaking, The vict'ry is won,
The flowers rejoicing, A new day is born;
The angels exclaiming, Sweet music they chime,
For crowning of Jesus, Your Savior and mine.
