| Brightly gleams our banner, Pointing to the sky, Waving wanderers onward To their home on high. 488 Journeying o'er the desert, Gladly thus we pray, And with hearts united Take our heavenward way. | | Brightly gleams our banner, Pointing to the sky, Waving wanderers onward To their home on high. | | Jesus, Lord and Master, At thy sacred feet, Here with hearts rejoicing See thy children meet: Often have we left thee, Often gone astray; Keep us, mighty Savior, In the narrow way. | | All our days direct us In the way we go; Lead us on victorious Over every foe: Bid thine angels shield us When the storm clouds lower, Pardon, Lord, and save us In the last dread hour. | | Then with saints and angels May we join above, Offering prayers and praises At thy throne of love. When the toil is over, Then comes rest and peace, Jesus in his beauty! Songs that never cease! | |
