Guide Me Oh Thou Great Redeemer
guide me, o thou great redeemer
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 till i want no more;
feed me till i want no more.
open now the crystal fountain,
whence the healing stream doth flow;
let the fire and 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.
lord, i trust thy mighty power,
wondrous are thy works of old;
thou deliver’st thine from thralldom,
who for naught themselves had sold:
thou didst conquer, thou didst conquer,
sin, and satan and the grave,
sin, and satan and the grave.
when i tread the verge of jordan,
bid my anxious fears subside;
death of deaths, and hell’s destruction,
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.
musing on my habitation,
musing on my heav’nly home,
fills my soul with holy longings:
come, my jesus, quickly come;
vanity is all i see;
lord, i long to be with thee!
lord, i long to be with thee!
