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 now and evermore. :|

2. Open now the crystal fountain,
Whence the healing stream doth flow;
Let the fiery, cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through:
|:Strong deliver, :|
|:Be Thou still my strength and shield. :|

3. Feed me with the heavn'ly manna
In this barren wilderness
Be my sword and shield, and banner
Be my robe of righteousness
|:Fight and conquer;:|
|:All my foes by sov'reign grace:|

4. Lord, I trust Thy mighty power,
Wondrous are Thy works of old;
Thou deliver’st Thine from thralldom,
Who for naught themselves had sold:
|:Thou didst conquer,:|
|:Sin, and Satan and the grave.:|

5. 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. :|

6. Musing on my habitation,
Musing on my heav’nly home,
Fills my soul with holy longings:
Come, my Jesus, quickly come;
|:Vanity is all I see;:|
|:Lord, I long to be with Thee!:|

7. 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.:]

8. 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.:]

9. ***alt verse***

10. Guide me, O Thou great Redeemer
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.
:|

11. Guide us, 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.:|

12. When I pass through death's dark shadow
Bid my anxious fears subside
Death of deaths, and hell's destruction
Lead me safe on heaven's side
|:Songs of praises,:|
|:I will ever give to thee.:|
