AFTER A JOURNEY.
Glory to God, whose gracious care
Doth all my steps attend,
Throughout the way my weakness bear,
And bring me to the end.
Doth all my steps attend,
Throughout the way my weakness bear,
And bring me to the end.
Thou, Lord, hast saved both man and beast;
How excellent Thy name!
While underneath Thy wings I rest,
Thy goodness I proclaim.
How excellent Thy name!
While underneath Thy wings I rest,
Thy goodness I proclaim.
Still (for I put my trust in Thee)
All evil turn aside,
Cover my helpless head, and be
Mine everlasting Guide.
All evil turn aside,
Cover my helpless head, and be
Mine everlasting Guide.
Lead me, till my few evil years
Of pilgrimage are o'er;
But ere I leave this vale of tears,
O, bid me sin no more.
Of pilgrimage are o'er;
But ere I leave this vale of tears,
O, bid me sin no more.
