Turn up the volume! You don’t have to be Welsh to love this hymn, and feel it stir your soul–Guide Me, O Thou Great Redeemer.
You may also know it as Bread of Heaven. In my church’s old hymnal, it had its Welsh title, Cwn Rhondda, which confused me for many years.
Thank you, Lee. This is a beautiful hymn – but I’m a bit puzzled. Why do you suppose the graphic they decided to use is of a dragon?
The red dragon is an ancient symbol of Wales.
Yes, I realize it is, but these days, I’m not so sure it’s the best symbol to use – especially regarding a hymn to The Most High. Maybe it’s just me – it just seems a bit odd.
I don’t think it’s intended as an idol–more like a logo, I’d say.
