Analyze: Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah

by Gilmore, Joseph Henry (1834-1918), tr. none

Song Lyrics

1. Guide me, O Thou great Je- ho- vah, Pil- grim through this bar- ren land. I am weak, but Thou art might- y; Hold me with Thy pow'r- ful hand. Bread of Hea- ven, Bread of Hea- ven, Feed me till I want no more; Feed me till I want no more.

2. O- pen now the crys- tal foun- tain, Whence the heal- ing stream doth flow; Let the fire and clou- dy pil- lar Lead me all my jour- ney through. Strong De- liv'r- er, strong De- liv'r- er, Be Thou still my Strength and Shield; Be Thou still my Strength and Shield.

3. Lord, I trust Thy migh- ty po- wer, Won- drous are Thy works of old; Thou de- liv- er'st Thine from thrall- dom, Who for naught them- selves had sold: Thou didst con- quer, Thou didst con- quer, Sin, and Sa- tan and the grave, Sin, and Sa- tan and the grave.

4. When I tread the verge of Jor- dan, Bid my an- xious fears sub- side; Death of deaths, and hell's de- struc- tion, Land me safe on Ca- naan's side. Songs of prai- ses, songs of prai- ses, I will ev- er give to Thee; I will ev- er give to Thee.

5. Mu- sing on my ha- bi- ta- tion, Mu- sing on my heav'n- ly home, Fills my soul with ho- ly long- ings: Come, my Je- sus, quick- ly come; Va- ni- ty is all I see; Lord, I long to be with Thee! Lord, I long to be with Thee!
