261. Guide me, O 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,
Feed me till I want no more.
2 Open now the crystal fountain
Whence the healing stream doth flow;
Let the fiery, cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through;
Strong Deliverer,
Be Thou still my Strength 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.
Amen.
