1. Children of the heav’nly King,
As we journey, let us sing;
Sing our Savior’s worthy praise,
Glorious in his works and ways.
2. We are trav’ling home to God,
In the way our fathers trod:
They are happy now, and we
Soon their happiness shall see.
3. O ye banished seed, be glad!
Christ our Advocate is made;
Us to save, our flesh assumes,
Brother to our souls becomes.
4. Fear not, brethren, joyful stand
On the borders of our land:
Jesus Christ, our Father’s Son,
Bids us undismayed go on.
5. Lord, obediently we’ll go,
Gladly leaving all below;
Only thou our Leader be,
And we still will follow thee.
