8160. My Life's Fountain

1 My Saviour, Father, Guide and Friend,
A solace to the mourning,
A wise Creator, powerful Hand;
A Judge to the scorning.

2 He leads me by His loving hand,
His gentle voice does guide me;
He vowed that He would ne’er forsake
And always walk beside me.

3 When I am frightened He is there
To comfort and sustain me.
His words give wisdom to my ear,
And peace will always claim me.

4 My Saviour has made me to go
With Him o’er plain or mountain;
And I will gladly follow Him,
For He is my life’s fountain.
