Tune: | [Lead me gently home, Father] |
Composer: | Will L. Thompson |
1 Lead me gently home, Father,
Lead me gently home,
When life’s toils are ended,
and parting days have come;
Sin no more shall tempt me,
Ne’er from Thee I’ll roam,
If Thou’lt only lead me, Father,
Lead me gently home.
Refrain:
Lead me gently home, Father,
lead me gently,
Lest I fall upon the wayside,
Lead me gently home.
2 Lead me gently home, Father,
Lead me gently home,
In life’s darkest hours, Father,
when life’s troubles come;
Keep my feet from wand’ring,
Lest from Thee I roam,
Lest I fall upon the wayside,
Lead me gently home. [Refrain]
3 Lead me gently home, Father,
Lead me gently home,
In temptation's hour, Father,
when sore trials come;
Be Thou near to keep me,
Take me as Thine own,
For I cannot live without Thee,
Lead my gently home. [Refrain]
