He Who Brought His Ancient People

He who brought His ancient people,

With a strong and mighty hand,

Out of all their cruel bondage,

Into Canaan's promised land.

Refrain

He has said, and we believe it,

'Tis a promise made of old,

From the trusting and the loving

No good thing will He withhold.

He who led them through the desert,

By the cloud that went before,

He whose goodness never failed them,

Though they grieved Him o'er and o'er.

Refrain

God is faithful to His promise,

He is mindful of His own;

On our journey to His kingdom

We shall never walk alone.

Refrain

We shall have His kind protection

And His love as in the past;

Though our days be few or many,

He will guide us to the last.
