219. Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah.

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 till I want no more,
Feed me till I want no more.

Open now the crystal fountain,
Whence the healing streams do flow;
Let the fiery cloud 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.

When I tread the verge of Jordan,
Bid my anxious fears subside;
Bear me through the swelling current,
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.
