Bread of Heaven

Guide me, O thou great Redeemer, 
Pilgrim through this barren land; 
I am weak, but thou are mighty, 
Hold me with thy powerful hand; 
Bread of heaven, Feed me till I want no more. 

Open now the crystal fountain, 
Whence the healing stream doth flow; 
let the fire and cloudy pillar 
Lead me all my journey through: 
Strong deliverer, 
Be thou still my strength and shield. 

When I tread the verge of Jordan, 
Bid my anxious fear subside; 
Death of death, and hell's destruction. 
Land me safe on Canaan's side: 
Songs of praises 
I will ever give to thee.
