Holy Spirit, Faithful Guide
Author: Marcus M. Wells Hymnal: The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church #150 (1957) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 with refrain Refrain First Line: Whispering softly, “Wanderer, come!" Lyrics: 1 Holy 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,
Refrain:
Whispering softly, “Wanderer, come!
Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.”
2 Ever 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. [Refrain]
3 When our days of toil shall cease,
Waiting still for sweet release,
Nothing left but heaven and prayer,
Trusting that our names are there;
Wading deep the dismal flood,
Pleading naught but Jesus’ blood, [Refrain]
Amen. Topics: The Holy Spirit Scripture: John 16:13 Tune Title: FAITHFUL GUIDE
Holy Spirit, Faithful Guide

M. M. Wells
1815 - 1895 Person Name: Marcus M. Wells Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 with refrain Author of "Holy Spirit, Faithful Guide" in The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church Converted to Christianity as a youth at a mission in Buffalo, New York, Marcus Morris Wells (b. Cooperstown, NY, 1815; d. Hartwick, NY, 1895) spent most of his life near Hartwick as a farmer and maker of farm implements. He is remembered in hymnody for writing both the text and tune of "Holy Spirit, Faithful Guide." "On a Saturday afternoon, October 1858, while at work in my cornfield, the sentiment of the hymn came to me," writes Wells. "The next day, Sunday, being a very stormy day, I finished the hymn and wrote the tune for it and sent it to Prof. I. B. Woodbury." Isaac Woodbury was the editor of the New York Musical Pioneer, and the original text and tune were first published in that periodical's November 1858 issue.

Wells, Marcus M. Concerning this author and his hymn we have no information beyond the following facts:—
Holy Spirit, faithful Guide. [Whitsuntide.] Appeared in The Sacred Lute, by T. E. Perkins, N.Y., undated [1864], p. 373, with music. Both words and music are attributed therein to M. M. Wells. The hymn has since been repeated in several English and American collections, including I. D. Sankey's Sacred Songs and Solos, 1878. It is dated 1858.
