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!
Feed me now and evermore.
2 Open thou the crystal fountain
Whence the healing stream shall flow;
Let the fiery, cloudy pillar,
Lead me all my journey through;
Strong Deliverer!
Be thou still my help and shield.
3 When I tread the verge of Jordan,
Bid my anxious fears subside;
Death of death, and hell's destruction,
Land me safe on Canaan's side;
Songs of praises
I will ever give to thee.
