From Job 19:25: “For I know that my vindicator lives and that in the end He will stand upon the earth.”
From Psalm 19:14: “Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.”
Living in weakness
Walking this barren land
Redeemer Almighty
Searching for His hand
Feeling emptiness
Finding Gospel’s password
Redeemer Almighty
Feeding on His Word
Wandering journey
Hungering for His peace
Redeemer Almighty
Unlocking life’s lease
Accepting His grace
Hearing hallowed Good News
Redeemer Almighty
Stepping up to choose
Lasting faithfulness
Scaling redemption’s ridge
Redeemer Almighty
Building Heaven’s bridge
Welsh-born Methodist preacher William Williams (1717-1791) wrote the inspiring lyrics of the hymn, “Guide Me Ever, Great Redeemer.” When one hears the verses, it is easy to appreciate his nickname, “Watts of Wales.” Some translations of the hymn are titled “Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah.”

I didn’t think of Christ as being heaven’s bridge. What a wonderful image!

Susan, I appreciate your affirmation of this verse. Without Christ, no bridge exists between our sinful selves and God.
