The Official Live video for “Guide Me, O My Great Redeemer" by Sovereign Grace Music. Based on the hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" by William Williams (1745), translated by Peter Williams (1771).
When God guided the Israelites to the promised land of Canaan with the fire and cloudy pillar, it was a foretaste of the way he would faithfully lead us by his Spirit in the New Testament age. Those who have been redeemed by the atoning work of Christ need never doubt God's ability to carry them all the way home. As J.I. Packer says, "Slippings and strayings there will be, no doubt, but the everlasting arms are beneath us; we shall be caught, rescued, restored. This is God's promise; this is how good he is.” So no matter how confused we may be, we can always sing with fresh faith, "Guide me, O my great Redeemer!"

LYRICS
Guide me, O my great Redeemer
Pilgrim through this barren land
When I’m desperate and needy
Jesus, lead me by Your hand
Let Your Spirit, ever with me
Be the compass on my way
I will trust You through the darkness
You will not lead me astray
CHORUS
Christ before me, Christ behind me
Christ within me every day
Be my path and prize forever
Jesus, guide me all the way
VERSE 2
Like the fire and cloudy pillar
Be my vision day and night
Like the manna in the morning
I will see Your love provide
Quench my thirst when I am fainting
Living Water, Fount of Life
Rock of Ages, on this journey
Only You can satisfy
VERSE 3
Lead me onward into Zion
To the home I’ve yet to see
Bring me to that better country
Where I’ll finally be free
When I near the shores of Jordan
Bid my anxious fears subside
For I know Your hand will keep me
Til I’m safe on Canaan’s side
