Clear before us through the darkness Gleams and burns the guiding light: Trusting God we march together Stepping fearless through the night. 2 One the light of God's own presence, O'er his ransomed people shed, Chasing far the gloom and terror, Bright'ning all the path we tread: One the object of our journey, One the faith which never tires, One the earnest looking forward, One the hope our God inspires. 3 One the strain the lips of thousands Lift as from the heart of one; One the conflict, one the peril, One the march in God begun: One the gladness of rejoicing On the far eternal shore, Where the one almighty Father Reigns in love for evermore.

Appears in 114 hymnals Topics: Presence of God longed for First Line: Encompass'd with clouds of distress Lyrics: 1 Encompass'd with clouds of distress, Just ready all hope to resign, I pant for the light of thy face, And fear it will never be mine: Dishearten'd with waiting so long, I sink at thy feet with my load All plaintive I pour out my song, And stretch forth my hands unto God. 2 Shine, Lord, and my terror shall cease; The blood of atonement apply; And lead me to Jesus for peace, The rock that is higher than I: Speak, savior, for sweet is thy voice; Thy presence is fair to behold, Attend to my sorrows and cries, My groanings that cannot be told. 3 If sometimes I strive as I mourn, My hold of Thy promise to keep: The billows more fiercely return, And plunge me again in the deep: While harrass'd and cast from thy sight, The tempter suggests with a roar, "The Lord has forsaken thee quite; "Thy God will be gracious no more." 4 Yet, Lord, if thy love hath design'd No covenant blessing for me, Ah, tell me, how is it I find Some pleasure in waiting for thee? Almighty to rescue thou art; Thy grace is my only resource: If e’er thou art Lord of my heart, Thy spirit must take it by force.
