Sheet music
- 1Holy Spirit, faithful Guide,Ever near the Christian’s side,Gently lead us by the hand,Pilgrims in a desert land;Weary souls fore’er rejoice,While they hear that sweetest voice,Whisp’ring softly, “Wand’rer, come!Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.”
- 2Ever present, truest Friend,Ever near Thine aid to lend,Leave us not to doubt and fear,Groping on in darkness drear;When the storms are raging sore,Hearts grow faint and hopes give o’er.Whisper softly, “Wand’rer, come!Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.
