I no longer squander my life, Now that this cloud’s met my sight; In the barrens, dark as the night, From afar off, came its light; Which, like fiery pillar bright, Floods my pathway with might, For my life, new hope ignites, Every footstep it guides. |

Oh, how rich my life has become As I pursue this bright cloud; Universal pillar of truth, Through the long ages unbowed; This, the operating God, In the flesh manifest, Gives me faith beyond compare, Matchless comfort and rest. |

With great boldness I can press on, Now I possess this bright cloud; Brothers’, sisters’ powerful love Bolsters, upholds and surrounds. Truth my spirit ’lluminates; How exhaustless this grace; No more sighs and wand’ring days; Now my heart’s found its place. |

With you all I’m joined blent as one, Part of this bright cloud today; What a glorious, splendid sky; Of crooked age unafraid. Let me boldly forward press, Testimony upraised; May it, more magnificent, Shine from age to age. |
| O Lord! O Lord! All encumb’ring weights, I’d lay down, Live in this radiant cloud. |

| Note: “cloud” refers to the cloud of witnesses in Hebrews 12:1. | |

I wonder if the cloud mentioned in the first few verses is also the cloud from Exodus?
