1 Children of the heav’nly King,
As ye journey sweetly sing,
Sing your Saviour’s worthy praise,
Glorious in His works and ways.

Chorus:
Sing of His love, ye angels of light;
Carol His praise, Ye seraphs so bright;
Join in the song, ye saints, with delight;
Praising the name, wonderful name of Jesus.

2 We are trav’ling home to God,
In the way our fathers trod;
They are happy now, and we
Soon their happiness shall see. [Chorus]

3 Fear not, brethren, joyful stand,
On the borders of our land;
Jesus Christ, our Father’s Son,
Bids us undismayed go on. [Chorus]

4 Lord, obediently we’ll go,
Gladly leaving all below;
Only Thou our leader be,
And we still will follow Thee. [Chorus]
