1218. Guide me, O thou great Jehovah!

1 Guide me, O thou great Jehovah!
Pilgrim thro' this barren land;
I am weak, but thou art mighty,
Hold me with thy pow'rful hand.
Bread of heaven, bread of heaven,
Feed me till I want no more,
Feed me till I want no more, want no more;
Feed me till I want no more.

2 Open now the crystal fountain
Whence the healing waters flow,
Let the fiery, 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, strength and shield;
Be thou still my strength and shield.

3 When I tread the verge of Jordan,
Bid my anxious fears subside;
Bear me thro' 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, give to thee;
I will ever give to thee.
