Pearls of Praise ‎#76

76. The Faithful Band

1 We’re a faithful little band,
And we’re marching to that land,
That land of God on high;
We will march at his command,
And will reach the promised land,
We will anchor by and by.

Refrain:
We’re marching,
We’re marching to that land of God on high;
Then we’ll march at God’s command,
And we’ll reach the promised land,
And we’ll anchor by and by.

2 The Bible’s telling me
How I must a Christian be,
To live at God’s right hand;
Then I’ll follow its command
In my journey to that land,
And we’ll anchor by and by. [Refrain]

3 Then come along with me,
And we’ll sail o’er life’s rough sea,
To the land for which we sigh;
We believe our happy band
Will reach the haven land,
And we’ll anchor by and by. [Refrain]
