Rejoicing on the Way. (612) Children of the heavenly King, As we journey let us sing; Sing our Savior's worthy praise, Glorious in his works and ways. We are trav'ling home to God, In the way our fathers trod; They are happy now, and we Soon their happiness shall see. 2 Fear not, brethren; joyful stand On the borders of our land; Jesus Christ, our Father's Son, Bids us undismayed go on. Lord! obediently we'll go, Gladly leaving all below: Only thou our Leader be, And we still will follow thee. John Cennick, 1742.
