Baptize Us Anew

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,
Whispering softly, 'Wander not, Fear not, I am with you, fear not!'

2Ever present, truest friend, Ever near to help and tend;
Leave us not to doubt and fear, Groping on in darkness drear;
When the storms are raging sore, Hearts grow faint and hope no more,
Whisper softly, 'Wander not, Fear not, I am with you, fear not!'

3When our days of toil shall cease, Waiting still for sweet release,
Nothing left but heaven and prayer, Wond'ring if our names are there;
Wading deep the dismal flood, Pleading naught but Jesus' blood,
Whisper softly, 'Wander not, Fear not, I am with you, fear not!'
