1. Savior, thru' the desert lead us,
Without you we cannot go;
You from cruel chains have freed us,
You have laid the tyrant low;
Let your presence
Cheer us all our journey thru'.
2. Thru' a desert dry and cheerless,
As our destined journey lie
Rendered by your presence fearless,
We may ev'ry foe defy;
Nought shall move us
While we see our Savior nigh.
3. When we halt, no track discov'ring,
Fearful lest we go astray,
O'er our path your pillar hov'ring,
Fire by night and cloud by day,
Shall direct us,
Thus we shall not miss our way.
4. When we hunger, you will feed us,
Manna shall our camp surround;
Faint and thirsty, you will heed us;
Streams shall from the rock abound;
Happy Israel,
What a Savior you have found.
5. When our foes in arms assemble,
Ready to obstruct our way,
Suddenly their hearts shall tremble;
You will strike them with dismay,
And your people,
Led by you, shall win the day.
6. Then lead on, Almighty Victor,
Scatter ev’ry hostile band;
Be our Guide and our Protector,
Till on Canaan’s shores we stand;
Shouts of vic’try
Then shall fill the Promised Land.
