Text:	Guide me, O thou great Jehovah
Author:	Thomas Hastings
Tune:	ZION

1 Guide me, O my 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 streams do 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;
Bear me through the swelling current;
Land me safe on Canaan's side
Songs of praises
I will ever sing to thee.
