Lead me by the hand, I pray, Lest in error's path I stray; Make Thy light my sole attraction, Guiding every thought and action. 3 Spirit of the heavenly morning, Shine into my darkened heart, That, the way of life discerning, I may choose the better part. Make my erring walk secure, Every thought and action pure; Whereso'er my feet be turning, Keep Thy zeal within me burning. 4 Deign Thy feeble flock to strengthen By the bonds of sacred love, And Thy lines of empire lengthen By Thy power from above. Help us govern in Thy sight, That our laws be just and right; That we suffer no oppression, Make our land Thine own possession. 5 Let our lamp of faith be burning On that awful judgment day. While in sin's domain sojourning, Guide us in the heavenward way: Then their praise and thanks to Thee, Lord, in all eternity Shall Thy happy children render, For Thy mercies, kind and tender. Amen.
