Jesus, Guide Our Way

Jesus, Guide Our Way
Text written by Nicolaus Zinzendorf (1700-1760)
Sung to SEELENBRAUTIGAM, composed by Adam Dreese (1620-1701), harmonized by Samuel Wesley (1810-1876)

Psalm 48:14 For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.

V. 1 Jesus, guide our way
To eternal day:
So shall we, no more delaying,
Follow Thee, Thy voice obeying:
Lead us by the hand
To our Father's land.

Psalm 27:3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

V. 2 When we danger meet
Steadfast make our feet;
Lord, preserve us uncomplaining
Mid the darkness round us reigning:
Through adversity 
Lies our way to Thee.

Psalm 27:11 Teach me thy way, O Lord, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.

Order all our way
Through the mortal day:
In our toil, with aid be near us:
In our need, with succour cheer us:
Till we safely stand
In our Father's land.
