He Leadeth Me

 Verse 1

He leadeth me: O blessed thought!

O words with heav'nly comfort fraught!

Whate'er I do, where'er I be,

Still 'tis God's hand that leadeth me.

He leadeth me, He leadeth me;

By His own hand He leadeth me:

His faithful foll'wer I would be,

For by His hand He leadeth me.


Verse 2

Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom,

Sometimes where Eden's bowers bloom,

By waters calm, o'er troubled sea,

Still 'tis His hand that leadeth me.

He leadeth me, He leadeth me;

By His own hand He leadeth me:

His faithful foll'wer I would be,

For by His hand He leadeth me.


Verse 3

Lord, I would clasp Thy hand in mine,

Nor ever murmur nor repine;

Content, whatever lot I see,

Since 'tis my God that leadeth me.

He leadeth me, He leadeth me;

By His own hand He leadeth me:

His faithful foll'wer I would be,

For by His hand He leadeth me.


Verse 4

And when my task on earth is done,

When, by Thy grace, the vict'rys won,

E'en death's cold wave I will not flee,

Since God through Jordan leadeth me.

He leadeth me, He leadeth me;

By His own hand He leadeth me:

His faithful foll'wer I would be,

For by His hand He leadeth me.
