Be with Me, Lord, Where'er I Go

Author: John Cennick Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #733 (1995) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Be with me, Lord, where'er I go; teach me what you would have me do; suggest whate'er I think or say; direct me in the narrow way. 2 Restrain me lest I harbor pride, lest I in my own strength confide; though I am weak, show me anew I have my pow'r, my strength from you. 3 Enrich me always with your love; my kind protector ever prove; Lord, put your seal upon my heart, that I from you may not depart. 4 O may I never do my will, but yours, and only yours, fulfill; let all my time and all my ways be spend and ended to your praise. Topics: Trust and Guidance; Christ--Abiding with believers; Christ--Guidance; Earthly concerns Scripture: Genesis 28:15 Languages: English Tune Title: HUS

Anonymous

Author of "Be with me, Lord, where'er I go" in A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for the Use of Universalist Societies and Families 16ed. In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
