Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Hymnal: Together in Song #574 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Captain of Israel's host, and guide
of all who seek the land above,
beneath your shadow we abide,
the cloud of your protecting love;
our strength, your grace; our rule, your word:
our end, the glory of the Lord.
2 By your unerring Spirit led,
we shall not in the desert stray;
we shall not full direction need,
nor miss our providential way;
as far from danger as from fear
while love, almighty love, is near. Topics: Fear; Glory of God; God's Love to Us; Holy Spirit; Name/s of God; Protection; Providence Scripture: 1 John 4:16-21 Languages: English Tune Title: FARMBOROUGH
