Author: William Williams, 1717-1791; Peter Williams, 1727-1796 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #252 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Scripture: Psalm 105:40 Lyrics: 1 Guide me, O thou great Redeemer,
pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but thou art mighty,
hold me with thy pow'rful hand:
Bread of Heaven, Bread of Heaven,
feed me till I want no more,
feed me till I want no more.
2 Open now the crystal fountain
whence the healing stream doth flow;
let the fire and cloudy pillar
lead me all my journey through:
strong deliv'rer, strong deliv'rer
be thou still my strength and shield,
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 and praises, songs of praises,
I will ever give to thee,
I will ever give to thee. Topics: The Journey of Life; The Suffering Community; Year A Christ the King; Year A Proper 20; Year B Proper 13; Year C Easter 6 Languages: English Tune Title: CWM RHONDDA
