Guide us, O Thou great Jehovah,
Pilgrims through this barren land;
We are weak, but Thou art mighty;
Hold us by Thy Powerful hand:
Bread of heaven
Feed us now and evermore.
Pilgrims through this barren land;
We are weak, but Thou art mighty;
Hold us by Thy Powerful hand:
Bread of heaven
Feed us now and evermore.
Open wide the living fountain
Whence the healing waters flow;
Be Thyself our cloudy pillar
All the dreary desert through:
Strong deliv’rer
Be Thou still our strength and shield.
While we tread this vale of sorrow
May we in Thy love abide;
Keep us, O our gracious Saviour!
Cleaving closely to Thy side:
Still relying
On our Father’s changeless love.
Saviour, come! We long to see Thee,
Long to dwell with Thee above;
And to know, in full communion,
All the sweetness of Thy love:
Come, Lord Jesus!
Take Thy waiting people home.
