OUT OF EGYPT.

By E. R. Button

I ONCE dwelt down in Egypt, And served a cruel king, But through the blood of Jesus I now His praise can sing; I fled at darkest midnight, But Jesus led the way, The cloud was ever present, To guide me night and day.

I had a crooked pathway Before I reached the prize, But God was ever with me, His Spirit satisfies; I murmured in the desert, I thought the end was near, But passing through the river Praise God I now am here.

I find His grace sufficient To keep me day by day, I ever more shall follow Tho thorny be the way; Dear brother, will you enter, The door is open wide, The cloud will go before you, And Jesus be your guide.
