Thou wayfaring Jesus -- a pilgrim and stranger,
Exiled from heaven by love at Thy birth:
Exiled again from Thy rest in the manger,
A fugitive child 'mid the perils of earth --
Cheer with Thy fellowship all who are weary,
Wandering far from the land that they love:
Guide every heart that is homeless and dreary,
Safe to its home in Thy presence above.

... Henry Van Dyke
