Guide Us, O Thou Great Jehovah
Hymns
(1948, 1979 ed.), 56
Trans.: Robert Robinson
1. Guide us, O thou great Jehovah,Guide us to the promised land.We are week, but thou art able;Hold us with thy pow’rful hand.Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit,Feed us till the Savior comes,Feed us till the Savior comes.
2. Open, Jesus, Zion’s fountains;Let her richest blessings come;Let the fiery, cloudy pillarGuard us to this holy home.Great Redeemer, Great Redeemer,Bring, O bring the welcome day!Bring, O bring the welcome day!
3. When the earth begins to tremble,Bid our fearful thoughts be still;When thy judgments spread destruction,Keep us safe on Zion’s hill,Singing praises, Singing praises,Songs of glory unto thee;Songs of glory unto thee.
