Guide me, O my great Redeemer
Author: W. Williams (1717-1791); P. Williams (1721-1796) Appears in 1,825 hymnals Topics: The Promise of Redemption Moses Lyrics: 1 Guide me, O my great Redeemer,
pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but you are mighty,
hold me with your powerful hand:
Bread of heaven, bread of heaven,
feed me now and evermore!
2 Open now the crystal fountain
where the healing waters flow;
let the fiery, cloudy pillar
lead me all my journey through:
Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer,
ever be my strength and shield.
3 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, songs of praises,
I will ever sing to you. Used With Tune: CWM RHONDDA Text Sources: Adapt.: and others

O Jesus, I Have Promised
Author: John Ernest Bode Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 622 hymnals Topics: Trusting in the Promises of God Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end;
be now and always near me,
my Master and my friend;
I shall not fear the battle
if you are by my side,
nor wander from the pathway
if you will be my guide.
2 O let me feel you near me!
The world is ever near:
I see the sights that dazzle;
the tempting sounds I hear.
My foes are ever near me,
around me and within;
but, Jesus, draw still nearer
and shield my soul from sin.
3 O let me hear you speaking
in accents clear and still,
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will;
O speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control;
O speak, and make me listen,
true guardian of my soul.
4 O Jesus, you have promised
to all who follow you
that where you are in glory
your servant shall be too.
And, Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end;
now give me grace to follow,
my Master and my friend. Scripture: 1 Samuel 3:10 Used With Tune: NYLAND

Author: Frances R. Havergal, 1836-1879 Meter: 6.5.6.5 D with refrain Appears in 153 hymnals Topics: Promise & Hope Refrain First Line: Stayed upon Jehovah Lyrics: 1 Like a river glorious
is God's perfect peace,
over all victorious
in its bright increase:
perfect, yet it floweth
fuller every day,
perfect, yet it groweth
deeper all the way.
Refrain:
Stayed upon Jehovah,
hearts are fully blest,
finding, as he promised,
perfect peace and rest.
2 Hidden in the hollow
of his blessed hand,
never foe can follow,
never traitor stand;
not a surge of worry,
not a shade of care,
not a blast of hurry
touch the spirit there. [Refrain]
3 Every joy or trial
falleth from above,
traced upon the dial
by the Sun of Love;
we may trust him fully
all for us to do;
those who trust him wholly
find him wholly true. [Refrain] Scripture: Isaiah 38:18 Used With Tune: WYE VALLEY

Hymn of Promise
Author: Natalie Sleeth, 1930-1992 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 25 hymnals Topics: Promise & Hope First Line: In the bulb there is a flower Lyrics: 1 In the bulb there is a flower;
in the seed, an apple tree;
in cocoons, a hidden promise:
butterflies will soon be free!
In the cold and snow of winter
there's a spring that waits to be,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.
2 There's a song in every silence,
seeking word and melody;
there's a dawn in every darkness
bringing hope to you and me.
From the past will come the future;
what it holds, a mystery,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.
3 In our end is our beginning;
in our time, infinity;
in our doubt there is believing;
in our life, eternity;
in our death, a resurrection;
at the last, a victory,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see. Scripture: Psalm 30:5 Used With Tune: PROMISE
