“ A Timely and Precious Exposition ” Thank you Dr. Masters for this precious and encouraging reminder that I along with the saints of all time, am a citizen of Heaven and at the present time am a pilgrim passing through this barren land.
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, 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 Deliverer, Strong Deliverer
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;
Bear me through the swelling current,
Land me safe on Canaan's side:
Songs of praises, Songs of praises,
I will ever give to Thee,
I will ever give to Thee.
William Williams (1717-1791)
