Lyrics: 1 Through good report and evil, Lord, Still guided by thy faithful word,-- Our staff, our buckler, and our sword,-- We follow thee. 2 With enemies on every side, We lean on thee, the Crucified; Forsaking all on earth beside, We follow thee. 3 O Master, point thou out the way, Nor suffer thou our steps to stray; Then in that path that leads to day We follow thee. 4 Thou hast passed on before our face; Thy footsteps on the way we trace; Oh, keep us, aid us by thy grace: We follow thee. 5 Whom have we in the heaven above, Whom on this earth, save thee, to love? Still in thy light we onward move; We follow thee! Scripture: Exodus 14:15 Used With Tune: SARUM
