1 O God of Bethel, by whose hand
Thy people still are fed;
Who through this weary pilgrimage
Hast all our father led:
2 Our vows, our prayers, we now present
Before Thy throne of grace;
God of our fathers, be the God
Of their succeeding race!
3 Through each perplexing path of life
Our wandering footsteps guide;
Give us each day our daily bread,
And raiment fit provide.
4 O spread Thy covering wings around,
Till all our wanderings cease,
And at our Father's loved abode
Our souls arrive in peace!
5 Such blessings from Thy gracious hand
Our humble prayers implore;
And Thou shall be our chosen God,
And portion evermore.
