Author: J. S. B. Monsell Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #584 (1920) First Line: On our way rejoicing, As we homeward move Lyrics: 1 On our way rejoicing, As we homeward move,
Hearken to our praises, O Thou God of love!
Is there grief or sadness? Thine it cannot be!
Is our sky beclouded? Clouds are not from Thee!
Refrain:
On our way rejoicing,
As we homeward move,
Hearken to our praises,
O Thou God of love!
2 If with honest-hearted love for God and man,
Day by day Thou find us doing what we can,
Thou Who giv'st the seed-time wilt give large increase,
Crown the head with blessings, fill the heart with peace. [Refrain]
3 On our way rejoicing gladly let us go;
Conquered hath our Leader, vanquished is our foe!
Christ without, our safety, Christ within, our joy;
Who, if we be faithful, can our hope destroy? [Refrain]
4 Unto God the Father joyful songs we sing;
Unto God the Saviour thankful hearts we bring;
Unto God the Spirit bow we and adore,
On our way rejoicing now and evermore! [Refrain] Topics: General Processionals Languages: English Tune Title: HERMAS
