Send Forth, O God, Thy Light and Truth

Send forth

O God

Thy light and truth

And let them lead me still

Undaunted

in the paths of right

Up to Thy ho­ly hill:

Then to Thy al­tar will I spring

And in my God re­joice

And praise shall tune the trem­bling string

And gra­ti­tude my voice.

O why

my soul

art thou cast down?

Within me why dis­tressed?

Thy hopes the God of grace shall crown;

He yet shall make thee blessed.

To Him

my nev­er fail­ing friend

I bow

and kiss the rod;

To Him shall thanks and praise as­cend

My Sav­ior and my God.
