The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book ‎#261

261. Be with us, Lord, where'er we go

1 Be with us, Lord, where'er we go;
Teach us what thou wouldst have us do;
Suggest whate'er we think or say;
Direct us in the narrow way.

2 Prevent us, lest we harbor pride;
Lest we in our own strength confide;
Show us our weakness, let us see
We have our power, our all, from thee.

3 Enrich us always with thy love;
Our kind Protector ever prove:
Thy signet put upon each breast,
And let thy Spirit on us rest.
