6-8s.

Salvation’s Captain, and the Guide
 
Of all that seek the rest above,
 
Beneath Thy shadow we abide,
 
The cloud of Thy protecting love;
 
Our strength Thy grace, our rule Thy Word,
 
Our end the glory of the Lord.
“For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.” (Hebrews 2:10)
“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.” (Psalm 91:1)
2
Lord, by Thy Word and Spirit led,
 
We shall not in the desert stray,
 
Or light for our direction need,
 
Or lose, if dark and drear, our way;
 
Still kept from danger and from fear,
 
Since Thy almighty love is near.
