Take Thy Staff, O Pilgrim

Author: Theodore Tilton Hymnal: Calvary Songs #112 (1875) First Line: Take thy staff, O pilgrim, haste thee on thy way Refrain First Line: Then haste, O haste thee Lyrics: 1 Take thy staff, O pilgrim! Haste thee on thy way; Let the morrow find thee Farther than today. If thou seek the city, Of the Golden Street, Pause not on the pathway, Rest not weary feet. Refrain: Then haste, oh, haste thee; Pilgrim on thy way! And let the morrow find thee, Still farther than to-day. 2 In the heav'nly journey, Press with zeal along,— Resting will but weary, Running make thee strong. Wings that eagles carry, Bear them in their flight; So thy burden bears thee— Surely then 'tis light. [Refrain] 3 Haste, it hath been told thee— All things are thine own; Pass the pearly portals, Stand before the throne. Here thy journey endeth, Here thy staff lay down, Enter here thy mansion, Here receive thy crown. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Take thy staff, O pilgrim] (Converse)
