SHMOS 15:13
You guided in your kindness the people that You redeemed, You led them with strength to Your holy abode.

Commentary
Even though these words were sung in the past tense, it is really a prophecy. Hashem will lead us with mercy, using a pillar of clouds to comfort us in the day, and a pillar of fire at night. (Evan Ezra) "You led Your people like a flock" (Tehellim 77) Just like a shepherd grazes each sheep in his flock according to it's needs, so too Hashem comforted and protected each person as they were led through the desert. (Baal HaTurim) With Hashem's strength Bnai Yisrael was led to the land of Caanan in order to enter and inherit it. (Rashbam)
