Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah (CWM RHONDDA) – Eight handbells

Fanny Crosby wrote Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah, which is sung as a prayer to God for leading and strength.

Guide me, O my great Redeemer / pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but Thou art mighty / hold me with Your powerful hand.
Bread of heaven, bread of heaven / feed me till I want no more.

Open now the crystal fountain / where the healing waters flow.
Let the fire and cloudy pillar / lead me all my journey through.
Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer / ever be my strength and shield.

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 of praises, songs of praises / I will ever sing to Thee.
