‘Tis By The Faith Of Joys To Come
We Walk Through Deserts Dark As Night;
Till We Arrive At Heaven Our Home,
Faith Is Our Guide, And Faith Our Light.
The Want Of Sight She Well Supplies,
She Makes The Pearly Gates Appear;
Far Into Distant Worlds She Pries,
And Brings Eternal Glories Near.
Cheerful We Tread The Desert Through,
While Faith Inspires A Heavenly Ray;
Though Lions Roar, And Tempests Blow,
And Rocks And Dangers Fill The Way.
So Abram’s, By Divine Command,
Left His Own House To Walk With God;
His Faith Beheld The Promised Land,
And Fired His Zeal Along The Road.
