Heav'nward still our pathway tends

Author: F. E. Cox; B. Schmolcke; A. Ramsey Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #362 (1918) Lyrics: 1 Heav'nward still our pathway tends; Here on earth we are but strangers, Till our road in Canaan ends, Safely passed this wild of dangers; Here we but as pilgrims rove, For our home is there above. 2 Heav'nward still, my soul, ascend! Thou art one of heaven's creations; Earth can ne'er give aim or end Fit to fill thy aspirations; And a heaven-enlightened mind Ever turns, its source to find. 3 Heav'nward still! God calls to me In His Word, so loudly speaking; Glimpses in that Word I see Of the home I'm ever seeking: While my heart that call attends, Still to heaven my path ascends. 4 Heav'nward! this I always think When He spreads for me His table, And I taste the meat and drink That with heavenly strength enable; After earth's oft bitter bread There His marriage feast is spread. 5 Heav'nward! far beyond the skies Faith my portion's joys is counting Till my heart doth upward rise Sun and moon and stars surmounting. All their light cannot compare With the splendent glory there. 6 Heav'nward still when life shall close, Death to my true home shall guide me: Then, triumphant to my woes, Lasting bliss shall God provide me: Christ Himself the way has led; Joyful in His steps I tread. 7 Heav'nward! Heav'nward! this my song. This my watchword oft repeated. Here for heaven I fondly long, Vain delusions all defeated. Heav'nward all my thoughts ascend Till in heaven my path shall end.
