Lord, Thy children guide and keep

Author: W. Walsham How Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 48 hymnals Topics: Confirmation Lyrics: Lord, thy children guide and keep, As with feeble steps they press On the pathway rough and steep Through the weary wilderness. Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way. There are stony ways to tread; Give the strength we sorely lack. There are tangled paths to thread; Light us, lest we miss the track. Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way. There are sandy wastes that lie Cold and sunless, vast and drear, Where the feeble faint and die; Grant us grace to persevere. Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way. 341 There are soft and flowery glades Decked with golden-fruited trees, Sunny slopes and scented shades; Keep us, Lord, from slothful ease. Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way. Upward still to purer heights! Onward yet to scenes more blest, Thou Guardian of my soul! 346 O Jesus, thou hast promised To all who follow thee, That where thou art in glory There shall thy servant be; And, Jesus, I have promised To serve thee to the end; O give me grace to follow, My Master and my Friend! O let me see thy footmarks, And in them plant my own! My hope to follow duly Is in thy strength alone. O guide me, call me, draw me, Uphold me to the end! At last in heaven receive me, My Savior and my Friend! Amen. Used With Tune: BREAD OF HEAVEN

A single great commission compels us from above to plan and work together that all may know Christ's love. 2 We all are called for service, to witness in God's name. Our ministries are different; our purpose is the same. To touch the lives of others by God's surprising grace, so every folk and nation may feel God's warm embrace. 3 Now let us be united, and let our song be heard. Now let us be a vessel for God's redeeming word. We all are one in mission, we all are one in call, our varied gifts united by Christ, the Lord of all. Used With Tune: [We all are one in mission]
