UMH 127: Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah
1. 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, bread of heaven,
feed me till I want no more;
feed me till I want no more.
2. Open now the crystal fountain,
whence the healing stream doth flow;
let the fire and cloudy pillar
lead me all my journey through.
Strong deliverer, strong deliverer,
be thou still my strength and shield;
be thou still my strength and shield.
3. 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, songs of praises,
I will ever give to thee;
I will ever give to thee.
The United Methodist Hymnal Number 127. Text: Charles Wesley. Music: Carl G. Glaser; arr. by Lowell Mason. Tune: AZMON, Meter: CM.
