In our Fatherland

Lutheran Service Book, Hymn #718, "Jesus, Lead Thou On", verse 4

"Jesus, lead Thou on Till our rest is won.
Heav'nly leader still direct us,
Still support, console, protect us,
Till we safely stand
In our fatherland."

AELW3:120

"The Word of God is such a great treasure and brings such marvelous revelations concerning invisible and impossible things that Abraham concludes with certainty that he will live after he has died and that after his death he Will possess the land which he was not to possess in this life. Thus he will live with God eternally."
