For the might of Your arm we bless You Lyrics and MP3

For the might of your arm we bless you,
our God, our father's God;
you have kept your pilgrim people
by the strength of your staff and rod;
you have called us to the journey
which faithless feet ne'er trod

Refrain:
For the might of your arm we bless you,
our God, our father's God.

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;

Refrain

We are watchers of a beacon
whose light must never die;
we are guardians of an altar
that shows you ever nigh;
we are children of the freemen
who have gained your rest, O God;

Refrain

May the shadow of your presence
around our camp be spread;
baptize us with the courage
with which you blessed our dead;
O keep us in the pathway
their saintly feet have trod;

Refrain
