Captain Of Israel’s Host, And Guide
Of All Who Seek The Land Above,
Beneath Thy Shadow We Abide,
The Cloud Of Thy Protecting Love;
Our Strength, Thy Grace, Our Rule, Thy Word;
Our End, The Glory Of The Lord.
By Thine Unerring Spirit Led,
We Shall Not In The Desert Stray
We Shall Not Full Direction Need
Nor Miss Our Providential Way;
As Far From Danger As From Fear,
While Love, Almighty Love, Is Near.
We’ve No Abiding City Here,
But Seek A City Out Of Sight;
Thither Our Steady Course We Steer,
Aspiring To The Plains Of Light;
Jerusalem The Saints’ Abode,
Whose Founder Is The Living God.
