Author: E. E. Hewitt Hymnal: Revival Praises #126 (1907) First Line: What tho' sometimes the briars Refrain First Line: Leading from the cross Lyrics: 1 What tho' sometimes the briars Spring up amid the flow'rs, Tho' passing clouds arising, Replace the sunny hours; Still from the heav'nly Father, Unnumbered mercies fall; His hand is gently leading, 'Tis the home-path after all. Chorus: Leading from the cross, To the starry crown, Leading to the land Where we lay our burdens down; We'll doubt Him not, nor murmur, Whatever ills befall; His hand is gently leading, 'Tis the home-path after all. 2 Then gladly sing His praises In sunshine and in shade, The heart that trusts in Jesus, Need never be afraid; While leaning on His bosom, His tender love recall; His hand is gently leading, 'Tis the home-path after all. [Chorus] 3 He knows the way before us, Our ev'ry step He guides, The hand outstretched to save us, All needful good provides; Till in the blessed city, Beyond the jasper wall; His hand is gently leading, 'Tis the home-path after all. [Chorus] Tune Title: [What tho' sometimes the briars]
