​Guide Me, O Thou Great Redeemer

Text: P.W. Williams, 1727-1796
Music: J.hughes, 1873-1932


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 now and evermore, 
feed me now and evermore.

Open now the crystal fountain, 
whence the healing stream doth flow; 
let the firey cloudy pillar 
lead me all my journey through:  
Strong deliv'rer, strong deliv'rer, 
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; 
death of death and hell's destruction, 
land me safe on Canaan's side:  
Songs and praises, songs and praises, 
I will ever give to thee, 
I will ever give to thee.
