It is a poetic setting to fit the tune, rather than a direct translation, and the translator is unknown.
It was sung in New Zealand in the 1980s, to a tune very similar to that of the original French song.

Lyrics
Chorus:With you I shall go through the years of my life
On the highways which span the world.
With you I shall go through the years of my life
To your people all over the world.
As your hand gently draws all my steps over yours,
With you Lord I will go, on the road that you show.
I will go where you lead, to those who may need me,
O Lord I will sing of the joys that you bring.
Just like you, let me give, all I have, let me leave
For the goals, O my Lord, of your kingdom I'll go.
At the gate of your land, you will reach out your hand,
And O Lord I'll be sure to be yours evermore
