O come, ye friends and neigh­bors,
Lead on, lead on,
How sweet are the tid­ings
Here our souls are oft­en fear­ful
Till, led by Thy free Spir­it, Lord,
In ev­er­last­ing rest,

The pil­grim

We are hap­py in the Lord,
Bright orb of night, ce­les­ti­al gem,
As he wan­ders in ex­ile from home!
But the Lord is our de­fend­er,
What migh­ty hopes are in our care,
The pil­grim con­flicts o’er,
He still is nigh.
