Thou must go forth alone, my soul!
Thou must go forth alone,
To other scenes, to other worlds,
That mortal hath not known.
Thou must go forth alone, my soul,
To tread the narrow vale;
But he, whose word is sure, hath said
His mercy shall not fail.
Thou must go forth alone, my soul,
To meet thy God above:
But shrink not—he has said, my soul,
He is a God of love!
His rod and staff shall comfort thee
Across the dreary road,
Till thou shalt join the blessed ones
In heaven’s serene abode.
