Lead Us Safely to the Shore

By R. F. C.

3 Now while the evening shadows gather, Dangers increase! Be thou our sure defense, our Father, Grant us the tokens of thy grace! O, let thy Holy Spirit's power On us descend, Distilling like the grateful shower— O, do be with us to the end! CHORUS.

4 O, let the cloudy pillar brighten, On Israel's side; And while it doth our path enlighten, From us our enemies divide. And when the angry floods upheaving, Against us roar, Almighty power the waters cleaving, Lead us in safety to the shore. CHORUS.—Then with harps we'll swell the chorus, To the Lamb once slain! While eternal day is beaming o'er us, With our Deliverer to reign. R. F. C.
