Author: Rev. Joseph H. Gilmore Hymnal: The Hymnal #106 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D First Line: He leadeth me, O blessed thought Lyrics: 1 He leadeth me: O blessed thought!
O words with heavenly comfort fraught!
Whate'er I do, where'er I be,
Still 't is God's hand that leadeth me.
Refrain:
He leadeth me, He leadeth me;
By His own hand He leadeth me:
His faithful follower I would be,
For by His hand He leadeth me.
2 Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom,
Sometimes where Eden's bowers bloom,
By waters calm, o'er troubled sea,
Still 't is His hand that leadeth me. [Refrain]
3 Lord, I would clasp Thy hand in mine,
Nor ever murmur nor repine;
Content, whatever lot I see,
Since 't is my God that leadeth me. [Refrain]
4 And when my task on earth is done,
When, by Thy grace, the victory's won,
E'en death's cold wave I will not flee,
Since God through Jordan leadeth me. [Refrain]
Amen. Topics: God the Father His Abiding Presence; Christ Captain, Our; Christ Leader, Our; Faith; God Presence, His Abiding; Trust and Confidence Tune Title: HE LEADETH ME
