MySongbooksThe Australian Hymn Book
The Australian Hymn Book was published in 1977, and was the culmination of almost ten years' work by an ecumenical committee, chaired by A. Harold Wood, intent on producing a new, contemporary and inclusive hymn book that could be used in worship by the varied Christian congregations across Australia.

[1]
Be thou my guardian and my guide,
and hear me when I call;
let not my slippery footsteps slide,
and hold me lest I fall.
[2]
The world, the flesh, and Satan dwell
around the path I tread:
O save me from the snares of hell,
thou quickener of the dead.
[3]
And if I tempted am to sin,
and outward things are strong,
do thou, O Lord, keep watch within,
and save my soul from wrong.
[4]
Still let me ever watch and pray,
and feel that I am frail,
that if the tempter cross my way
yet he may not prevail.
