Guide me, Jesus, safely guide
Me to where my heart's delight
Will in Thee be satisfied
In the glow of Thine own Light.
Near me, Jesus, ever near;
Be my longing soul's content;
Fill me with Thy Spirit dear;
Make Thy Gospel mine intent.
Fill me, Jesus, always fill
Me with Holy Spirit pow'r;
Of my pride convict me 'til
Thee I call in needy hour.
Lead me, Jesus, boldly lead
Up the battle-slopes to fight
Hell's own armored demon breed,
Vanquishing the beasts of night.
Break me, Jesus, my soul break
By the weight of Thy great Law;
Make me new by Thy sweet grace
'Til in Thee am lost in awe.
