FOR the might of Thine arm we bless Thee, our God, our Father’s God. Thou hast kept Thy pilgrim people by the strength of Thy staff and rod: Thou hast called us to the journey which faithless feet ne’er trod; For the might of Thine arm we bless Thee our God, our father’s God.

Verse 2

For the love of Christ constraining, that bound their hearts as one; For the faith in truth and freedom in which their work was done; For the peace of God’s evangel wherewith their feet were shod; For the might of Thine arm we bless Thee our God, our father’s God.

Verse 3

We are watchers of a beacon whose light must never die; we are guardians of an altar that shows Thee ever nigh; we are children of Thy freedom who sleep beneath the sod; For the might of Thine arm we bless Thee, our God, Our father’s God.

Verse 4

May the shadow of Thy presence around our camp be spread; baptize us with the courage Thou gavest to our dead; O keep us in the pathway their saintly feet have trod; For the might of Thine arm we bless Thee our God, our father’s God.
