52. Jesus Still Lead On

1 Jesus still lead on, while life’s course is run,
And we’ll follow at Thy bidding,
Meekly in Thy footsteps treading,
Guide us by Thy hand
To our Fatherland.

Refrain:
Lead us on,
O King of faith and love,
Lead us on,
Till in that home above,
We join with saints and angels fair,
who sing the song of glory there,
And with their joy in heaven share,
O lead us on.
Should the way be drear—
Let us never fear—
And in days of greatest sorrow,
Trust Thee for a bright tomorrow,
Trust Thee for a bright tomorrow.
For thro’ weal and woe,
To our home we go.
And if we feel the smart of a wounded heart,
Or if other’s griefs oppress us,
Still may patience, Lord, possess us,
Let us, ever true,
Keep the end in view.

2 Should the way be drear, let us never fear,
And in days of greatest sorrow,
Trust Thee for a bright tomorrow;
For thro’ weal and woe,
To our home we go. [Refrain]

3 If we feel the smart of a wounded heart,
Or if other’s griefs oppress us,
Still may patience, Lord, possess us;
Let us ever true,
Keep the end in view. [Refrain]

4 Order Thou our way, all our earthly stay;
Should our path be rough and thorny,
Give us grace to meet the journey;
Then, when life is o’er,
Open wide the door. [Refrain]
