239. Wherever He Leads Me

1 Wherever He leads me, my Jesus I know
All things doeth well, whersoever I go,
He knows what is best, and doth guide me in love
T’ward mansions prepared for His children above.

Refrain:
Wherever He leads me, I’ll follow each day
His footsteps and walk in the straight, narrow way;
I’ll praise Him I love till the shadows are past
Then go home rejoicing to glory, at last.

2 How blest, when temptations beset me, and care
Encumbers me sorely, while burdens I bear,
I lay at His feet, all my sorrows, and sing,
Wherever He leads me, I’ll own Him my King. [Refrain]

3 Wherever He leads me, ‘mid trial or pain,
So oft, but I count all afflictions but gain,
His counsel and smile, light the dreariest day,
My Saviour doth comfort me all of the way. [Refrain]

4 Wherever He leads me, How sweet to be led!
With manna He feeds me, so wondrously fed
Am I for the bread of life feedeth my soul,
My Saviour sustains me who maketh me whole. [Refrain]
