Hymn 244 — It is not with uncertain step
| 244 | J. N. DARBY (1800-1882) | C.M. |
| 1 |
It is not with uncertain step We tread our desert way; A well-known voice has called us up To everlasting day -- | |
| 2 |
The voice of Him who here has trod Alone the trackless way (And marked the road which leads to God) Where once we, lost, did stray. | |
| 3 |
He leaves us not alone to trace Our path across the waste; But leads us still, with living grace, Homeward, whereto we haste. | |
| 4 |
See! open stands the heav'nly door, Whence glory shines below, To light the way He's gone before, The coming bliss to show. | |
| 5 |
In patience then we tread the road -- Our faith and courage tried -- And trust the love which bears each load, Our hearts from grief to hide. | |
