pil­grim

Who get with­in the gate!
Who so be­set him round with dis­mal sto­ries
Homeward bound, home­ward bound;
Bright orb of night, ce­les­ti­al gem,
We should ne’er be sad;
And view yon east­ern sky;
As he wan­ders in ex­ile from home!
We are strang­ers here;
O my Sav­ior, lead Thou me.
To the land of end­less day,
To the land of end­less day,
Here our path is oft­en dim;
Till, led by Thy free Spir­it, Lord,
See His child­ren, right­eous pil­grims.
I jour­ney here be­low;
Weary pil­grim, cease thy mourn­ing,
Going each with staff in hand?
Freedom to save.
Go re­joic­ing on the way,
O’er thy lone­ly way;
