We journey through the unknown,
To a home we have yet to own;
A wonderful home in eternity,
Promised by the Lord Almighty.
It is a challenging journey,
Often through hostile territory;
But God will be with us all the way;
If we obey Him night and day.
When the path ahead looks dim,
We need to walk close to Him;
For the Guardian of our soul,
Is sovereign and in control.
When storms arise and rage,
He gives strength and courage.
When forces of evil assail,
His faithfulness does not fail.
We should not be terrified,
For the Lord is ever by our side;
To guide, to protect and to bless
Us with prosperity and success.

Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go.
Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.
(Joshua 1:7-9, NIV)
