Guide Me Onward - Lyrics

Verse 1: Guide me on my upward journey, on this mountain path so steep. You have climbed this way before me, keep me looking up to Thee, You have climbed this way before me, keep me looking up to Thee. CHORUS: Guide me always onward, Lord. Gird me with the Spirit’s sword. Arm me with the shield of faith. O Lord, lead me all my days. Verse 2: Guide me onto higher ground, help me never look down. Keep me always climbing upward, till I hear the trumpet sound, Keep me always climbing upward, till I hear the trumpet sound. Verse 3: Guide me, Father, through the valley, in this deadly battlefield. I am weak, but Thou art mighty, be Thou still my strength and shield, I am weak, but Thou art mighty, be Thou still my strength and shield. Verse 4: Guide me, Lord, on this great quest, as I know for me You died. Help me to endure each test, I know You are by my side, Help me to endure each test, I know You are by my side. Verse 5: Guide me, Lord, I need Your wisdom, I will ask for nothing less. Lead me seeking first Your kingdom, and Your robe of righteousness, Lead me seeking first Your kingdom, and Your robe of righteousness. Verse 6: Guide me, Jesus, up to heaven, from this rugged mountainside. Down below I see destruction; You’re the Rock in Whom I hide, Down below I see destruction; You’re the Rock in Whom I hide. Verse 7: Guide me on the narrow way, overcoming by Thy grace. Till that bright and joyful day when I see Your living face, Till that bright and joyful day when I see Your living face.
