1  Go to Him "without the camp,"
    His reproach to gladly bear.
    Suffered He without the gate,
    How can I in comfort share?
 
 
 2  Go to Him "without the camp,"
    Willing e'en to bear the cross;
    He has trod the narrow way,
    I will follow, suff'ring loss.
 
 
 3  Go to Him "without the camp,"
    Dear ones, relatives forsake;
    He the Father's will did mind,
    In His passion I partake.
 
 
 4  Go to Him "without the camp,"
    His companion I will be;
    Never join religion's ranks
    Or the world's society.
 
 
 5  Go to Him "without the camp,"
    Though the path be lone and grim;
    Let all human friends desert,
    I am satisfied with Him.
 
 
 6  Go to Him "without the camp,"
    There to walk with Him, how blest!
    E'er to see His smiling face
    Ever in His presence rest.
 
 
 7  Go to Him "without the camp,"
    Till the dawning of the day;
    Then I'll see Him and rejoice,
    With Him in His kingdom stay.
