268. Salvation's Captain, and the Guide

6-8s.
by C. Wesley
1
Salvation’s Captain, and the Guide
 
Of all that seek the rest above,
 
Beneath Thy shadow we abide,
 
The cloud of Thy protecting love;
 
Our strength Thy grace, our rule Thy Word,
 
Our end the glory of the Lord.
2
Lord, by Thy Word and Spirit led,
 
We shall not in the desert stray,
 
Or light for our direction need,
 
Or lose, if dark and drear, our way;
 
Still kept from danger and from fear,
 
Since Thy almighty love is near.
“Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come.” (John 16:13)
“NUN. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” (Psalm 119:105)
