Author: Bernard Barton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 276 hymnals First Line: Lamp of our feet, whereby we trace Lyrics: 1 Lamp of our feet whereby we trace Our path when wont to stray; Stream from the fount of heav'nly grace, Brook by the trav'ler's way: 2 Bread of our souls whereon we feed; True manna from on high; Our guide and chart wherein we read Of realms beyond the sky; 3 Pillar of fire, thro' watches dark, Or radiant cloud by day: When waves would break our tossing bark, Our anchor and our stay: 4 Word of the ever-living God, Will of His glorious Son; Without thee, how could earth be trod Or heaven itself be won? 5 Lord, grant us all aright to learn The wisdom it imparts And to its heavenly teaching turn With simple, childlike hearts. Amen. Topics: The Word Law and Gospel Scripture: Psalm 119:105 Used With Tune: ST. ANNE

Why should the men of pride and sin Thy truth and power defy; And boast, as if their evil way Were hidden from Thine eye? 3. Lord, Thou hast seen; arise and save. To Thee our cause we bring; Reign Thou in righteousness and power, For Thou alone art King. 4. All our desires to Thee are known; Thy help is ever near; O first prepare our hearts to pray, And then accept our prayer! Used With Tune: ST.
