Words by Evelyn E. Plummer:
Lead us and guide us, Lord, in paths of peace.
Put forth Thy mighty sword for our release.
Turning our hearts to Thee, drawn by Thy love,
Seeking form sin to flee, true may we prove.
Meekly to bear Thy cross, though the world frown;
Winning through pain and loss heav'n's shining crown.
