Songs for Worship ‎#74a

74a. Guide us, Savior

God has said, “Forever blessed
Those who seek me in their youth.
They shall find the path of wisdom,
And the narrow way of truth.”
Guide us, Savior,
Guide us, Savior,
In the narrow way of truth,
Guide us, Savior,
Guide us, Savior,
In the narrow way of truth.

Be our strength, for we are weakness;
Be our wisdom and our guide;
May we walk in love and meekness,
Nearer to our Savior’s side.
Naught can harm us,
Naught can harm us,
While with thee we thus abide.

And when death at last o’ertakes us,
And we sink beneath his might,
May that blessed morn awake us,
Safe in yonder realms of light;
There forever,
There forever,
Chant thy praise with angels bright.
