They
Stride as Kings
They
stride as kings upon the earth
arrayed
in mighty pow’r
their
heads held proudly
high
and gazing t’ward
the
land of God beyond their way
That
wond’rous place that calls them on
its
glories great and yet
as
dust beneath the feet
when
matched with Him they love
His
glory great, so far beyond
what
mortal mind can hold
His
love their call, their
heart’s
desire, that leads them to their home
They
stride despised upon the earth
laughed
and scorned to death
their
heads held meekly
down
and leaning on
the
hand of God along their way
That
One so great the earth cannot
with
His greatness battle,
and
o’er His saints cannot
gain
sway, though beaten, cursed,
and
cruelly killed, they are not
o’ercome.
On He leads them
by
His great abiding love,
this
world is shamed beneath them.
