  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, Feed me till I want no more,
    Bread of heaven, Feed me till I want no more.
  2. Open now the crystal fountain, Whence the healing waters flow;
    Let the fiery, cloudy pillar Lead me all my journey through :
    Strong Deliverer, Be thou still my strength and shield,
    Strong Deliverer, Be thou still my strength and shield,
  3. When I tread the verge of Jordan, Bid my anxious fears subside;
    Bear me through the swelling current; Land me safe on Canaan's side:
    Songs of praises I will ever give to thee.
    Songs of praises I will ever give to the.Amen
