Almighty God, we cry to thee,
From Egypt’s bondage set us free
And lead us through the wilderness,
To Canaan’s land, the land of peace.
Be thou our guard by night and day,
Amidst the dangers of the way
Let heavenly manna crown our board,
The flinty rock its streams afford.
May we obey thy righteous laws,
Defend thy truth, maintain thy cause;
And show in thought, in word and deed,
That we are Abraham’s chosen seed.
Then shall the Lord delight to bless,
And grant us his divine increase;
Shall lead us to the land above
Where we shall feast upon his love.
