Guidance
Author: William Williams Appears in 1,825 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:4 First Line: Guide me, O thou great Jehovah Lyrics: 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 till I want no more.
2 Open thou the crystal fountain
Whence the healing streams do flow;
Let the fiery, cloudy pillar
Lead me all the journey through;
Strong Deliverer,
Be thou still 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
I will ever give to thee.

Here, O My Lord, I See You Face to Face
Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 315 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 First Line: Here, O my Lord, I see you face to face! Lyrics: 1 Here, O our Lord, we see you face to face!
Here would I touch and handle things unseen,
here grasp with firmer hand eternal grace,
and all my weariness upon you lean.
2 Here would I feed upon the bread of God,
here drink with you the royal cup of heav'n;
here would I lay aside each earthly load,
and taste afresh the calm of sin forgiv'n.
3 This is the hour of banquet and of song;
this is the heav'nly table spread anew;
here let me feast and, feasting, still prolong
the brief, bright hour of fellowship with you.
4 I have no help but yours, nor do I need
another arm but yours to lean upon;
it is enough, O Lord, enough indeed;
my strength is in your might, your might alone.
5 Mine is the sin, but yours the righteousness;
mine is the guilt, but yours the cleansing blood;
here is my robe, my refuge, and my peace,
your blood, your righteousness, O Lord, my God.
6 Too soon we rise; the vessels disappear.
the feast, though not the love, is past and gone.
The bread and wine remove, but you are here,
nearer than ever, still our shield and sun.
7 Feast after feast thus comes and passes by,
yet, passing, points to that glad feast above,
giving sweet foretaste of the festal joy,
the Lamb's great marriage feast of bliss and love.

thou wast fasting in the wild;
forty days and forty nights
tempted, and yet undefiled.
2 Sunbeams scorching day by day;
chilly dewdrops nightly shed;
prowling beasts about thy way;
stones thy pillow; earth thy bed.
3 Shall not we thy sorrows share,
learn thy discipline of will,
and, like thee, by fast and prayer
wrestle with the powers of ill?
4 And if Satan, vexing sore,
flesh and spirit should assail,
thou, his vanquisher before,
wilt not suffer us to fail.
5 Watching, praying, struggling thus,
victory ours at last shall be;
angels minister to us
as they ministered to thee. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnate - Public Ministry; Christian Year Lent; Jesus temptations Used With Tune: AUS DER TIEFE (HEINLEIN)

And drink the holy blood for you outpoured;
Offered was He for greatest and for least,
Himself the victim and Himself the priest.

To all believers life eternal yields;
With heav'nly bread He makes the hungry whole,
Gives living waters to the thirsting soul.
3 Come forward then with faithful hearts sincere,
And take the pledges of salvation here.
O Lord, our hearts with grateful thanks endow
As in this feast of love You bless us now.
