Jesus a great desire have we

I am looking for the words and tune to a hymn, requested before his death, for my father in law's funeral. It was probably originally in Golden Bells or maybe Christian Praise. I remember singing it many years ago and believe the first line is: "Jesus a great desire have we, to walk life's path with you."

The hymn is

OH, WALK WITH JESUS

Oh, walk with Jesus, wouldst thou know
"¨How deep, how wide His love can flow;"¨
They only fail His love to prove
"¨Who in the ways of sinners rove.

Walk thou with Him, that way is light,
"¨All other pathways end in night."¨
Walk thou with Him, that way is rest,"¨
All other pathways are unblest.

Oh, walk with Jesus, to thy view
"¨He will make all things sweet and new,"¨
Will bring new fragrance from each flower,
"¨And hallow every passing hour.

Jesus, a great desire have we
To walk life's troubled path with Thee:"¨
Come to us now, in converse stay:
"¨And, Oh, walk with us day by day.
