Lamp of Our Feet, Whereby We Trace

Author: Bernard Barton Hymnal: HOoS1926 #221 (1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 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 through watches dark, Or radiant cloud by day; When waves o'erwhelm 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 Means of Grace The Word; Fourth Sunday after Easter Scripture: Exodus 14:19-20 Languages: English Tune Title: EVAN

Let us here Thy glory see, And in tender pity make it Now Thy child, and leave it never, Thine of earth and Thine forever. 4 Make it, Lord, Thy member now; Shepherd, take Thy lamb, and feed it; Prince of Peace, its peace be Thou; Way of life, to heaven lead it, Vine, this branch may nothing sever, Graft by faith in Thee forever. 5 Now upon Thy heart it lies, What our hearts so dearly treasure: Heavenward lead our burdened sighs, Pour Thy blessing without measure; Write the name we now have given-- Write it in the book of heaven.

Great Shepherd, take it to Thy fold, Thine own for aye to be: Defend it through this earthly strife, And lead it in the path of life. 3 O Spirit, brooding o'er the wave, Descend upon this child: Give endless life, its spirit lave With waters undefiled: Grant it a child of God to be, A holy temple unto Thee. 4 O God, Thine own command is done: We speak, but Thine the might: This child which scarce hath seen the sun, O pour on it Thy light, In faith and hope, in joy and love, Thou Sun of all, below, above!
