GUIDE ME, THOU GREAT JEHOVAH

1. Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah

    Pilgrim through this barren land;

    I am weak, but Thou art mighty,

    Hold me with Thy powerful hand:

    Bread of Heaven! Bread of Heaven!

    Feed me now and ever more,

    Feed me now and ever more.


2. Open Thou the crystal fountain

    Whence the healing stream doth flow;

    Let the fiery, cloudy pillar

    Lead me all my journey through:

    Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer

    Be thou still my strength and shield,

    Be thou still my strength and shield.


3. When I tread the verge of Jordan

    Bid my anxious fears subside;

    Bear me through the swelling torrent,

    Land me safe on Canaan’s side:

    Songs of praises, songs of praises,

    I will ever give to Thee,

    I will ever give to Thee.


4. Saviour, come! We long to see Thee,

    Long to dwell with Thee above;

    And to know in full communion,

    All the sweetness of Thy love.

    Come, Lord Jesus! Come, Lord Jesus!

    Take Thy waiting people home.

    Take Thy waiting people home.
