To Thee, O God, Whose Guiding Hand

 

VERSE 1

To Thee, O God, whose guiding hand

Our fathers led across the sea,

And brought them to this barren shore,

Where they might freely worship Thee—

 

VERSE 2

To Thee, O God, whose arm sustained

Their footsteps in this desert land,

Where sickness lurked, and death assailed

And foes beset on every hand—

 

VERSE 3

To Thee, O God, we lift our eyes,

To Thee our grateful voices raise,

And, kneeling at Thy gracious throne,

Devoutly join in hymns of praise.

 

VERSE 4

Our fathers’ God, incline Thine ear,

And listen to our heartfelt prayer;

Surround us with Thy heavenly grace,

And guard us with Thy constant care.

 

VERSE 5

Our fathers’ God, in Thee we’ll trust,

Sheltered by Thee from every harm;

We’ll follow where Thy hand shall guide,

And lean on Thy sustaining arm.
