¶Lyrics / Text

Now let our voices join To form one pleasant song; (a) Ye pilgrims in Jehovah's ways With music pass along. How straight the path appears! How open, and how fair! No lurking spies to trap our feet, (b) No fierce destroyer there. But flowers of paradise In rich profusion spring; The Sun of glory gilds the path, And dear companions sing.
