When Israel out of Egypt came Safe in the sea they trod; By day in cloud, by night in flame, Went on before them God.

He brought them with a stretched out hand Dry-footed through the foam, Past sword and famine, rock and sand, Lust and rebellion, home.

I never over Horeb heard The blast of advent blow; No fire-faced prophet brought me word Which way behoved me go.

Ascended is the cloudy flame, The mount of thunder dumb; The tokens that to Israel came, To me they have not come.

I see the country far away Where I shall never stand; The heart goes where no footstep may Into the promised land.

The realm I look upon and die Another man will own; He shall attain the heaven that I Perish and have not known.

But I will go where they are hid That never were begot, To my inheritance amid The nation that is not.

AE Housman

But God led the people about, through the way of the wilderness of the Red sea: and the children of Israel went up harnessed out of the land of Egypt.

And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for he had straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you.

And they took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, in the edge of the wilderness.

And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:

He took not away the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, from before the people.

Samuel Coalman, The Delivery of Israel
