Lamp of our feet! whereby we trace

Our path when wont to stray;

Stream from the fount of heavenly grace!

Brook by the traveler’s way!

2 Bread of our souls, whereon we feed!

True manna from on high!

Our guide and chart! wherein we read

Of realms beyond the sky.

3 Pillar of fire through watches dark,

And radiant cloud by day!

When waves would whelm our tossing bark,

Our anchor and our stay!

4 Word of the everlasting God!

Will of his glorious Son!

Without thee how could earth be trod,

Or heaven itself be won?
