Guide me, O thou great Jehovah,

Pilgrim through this barren land,

I am weak, but thou art mighty;

Hold me with thy powerful hand.

Open now the crystal fountains

Whence the living waters flow;

Let the fiery, cloudy pillar

Lead me all my journey through.

Feed me with the heavenly manna

In this barren wilderness;

Be my sword, and shield, and banner,

Be the Lord my Righteousness.

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.

Amen.
