Lead Thou Me

Verse 1

Tho’ the way be sometimes dreary, Father, lead Thou me! Tho’ the heart be sometimes weary, Father, lead Thou me! Tho’ a host encamp before me, Fearless will I be! With Thy banner floating o’er me, Father, lead Thou me!

Verse 2

Thro’ the valley dark and lonely, Father, lead Thou me! Give me then Thy presence only, Father, lead Thou me! When I hear the billow roaring, Bid the shadows flee; Then my fainting soul restoring, Father, lead Thou me!

Verse 3

Sins oppose and fears alarm me: Father, lead Thou me! Led by Thee there’s naught can harm me: Father, lead Thou me! By Thy mighty power surrounded, Trusting all to Thee, Let me never be confounded: Father, lead Thou me!
