Guard Me, Guide Me

Guard me from ungratefulness

Guide me to your holiness

Be my fortress and my tower

Be my lamp and path this hour

Guard me from temptation’s might

Guide me to thy holy light

Be my buckler and my shield

Be the way to which I yield.

Guard me , Guide me

Shelter and hide me

Within your wings of righteousness

The secret place where I am blessed.

Guard me and guide me

Savior dwell inside me

For you’ve fulfilled all righteousness

You are the way in which we rest.

Guard me from my own deceits

Guide me on your narrow streets

Be my harbor from the storm

The journey by which I’m transformed.

Guard me , Guide me

Shelter and hide me

Within your wings of righteousness

The secret place where I am blessed.

Guard me and guide me

Savior dwell inside me

For you’ve fulfilled all righteousness

You are the way in which we rest.
