Representative Text

1 By Thy hand, O blessed Saviour,
We are guided every day;
And Thy loving eye is beaming
Kindly on us all the way.

Refrain:
Walking in the blessed pathway,
In the sunshine of Thy love,
Oh, how sweet will be the journey
To the mansions built above.

2 If our wayward feet grow weary,
As we journey through the land,
We will trust in Thee, dear Saviour,
And be guided by Thy hand. [Refrain]

3 When our hearts are aching, bleeding,
From the burdens which we bear,
We will look to Thee, dear Jesus,
And will trust Thy love and care. [Refrain]
