GUIDE me, O Thou 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 now and evermore.
Open now the crystal fountain, Whence the healing stream doth flow; Let the fiery, cloudy pillar Lead me all my journey through: Strong Deliverer, Be Thou still my strength and shield.
When I tread the verge of Jordan, Bid my anxious fears subside: Death of death, and hell’s destruction, Land me safe on Canaan’s side: Songs of praises I will ever give to Thee.
William Williams, 1717-91
