Verse 2 I was not ever thus, nor prayed that
Songs and praises, songs and praises, thou Should'st lead me on; I loved to choose
I will ever give to Thee; and see my path; but now
I will ever give to Thee. 3/3
HOME Lead thou me on;
331 Lead us, heavenly Father, I love the garish day, and, spite of fears, Pride
lead us ruled my will:
Verse 1 remember not past years. 2/3
Lead us, heavenly Father, lead us Verse 3
O‟er the world‟s tempestuous sea; So long thy power hath blessed me, sure it still
Guard us, guide us, keep us, feed us, Will lead me on,
O'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, till
For we have no help but thee, The night is gone;
Yet possessing every blessing
If our God our Father be. 1/3 And with the morn those angel faces smile,
Which I have loved long since, and lost awhile.
Verse 2 3/3
Saviour, breathe forgiveness o‟er us; HOME
All our weakness thou dost know,
Thou didst tread this earth before us, 333 O God of Bethel, by whose
hand
Thou didst feel its keenest woe; Verse 1
Lone and dreary, faint and weary, O God of Bethel, by whose hand,
Through the desert thou didst go. 2/3 Thy people still are fed,
Who through this weary pilgrimage,
Verse 3 Hast all our fathers led: 1/5
Spirit of our God, descending,
Fill our hearts with heavenly joy, Verse 2
Love with every passion blending, Our vows, our prayers, we now present Before
Thy throne of grace:
Pleasure that can never cloy; God of our fathers, be the God,
Thus provided, pardoned, guided, Of their succeeding race. 2/5
Nothing can our peace destroy. 3/3

The night is dark, and I am far from home, Lead And raiment fit provide. 3/5
thou me on.
Verse 4
Keep thou my feet; O spread thy covering wings around,
I do not ask to see The distant scene; one step Till all our wanderings cease,
enough for me. 1/3 And at our Father's loved abode
Our souls arrive in peace. 4/5
