1 A guiding hand I clearly trace Along my earthly way, A Father’s hand, in pow’r and grace, Upholding day by day; And ever, as I onward go, More bright the way appears, Adown the shining pathway,— The pathway of the years. Chorus: I do not ask to see, It is enough for me To know my Father leads, And that His presence cheers; My pathway He will trace, And by His love and grace, Will make a shining pathway, A pathway thru the years. 2 ‘Tis good to know that I am led By His almighty hand, That ways which sometimes fill with dread Are ways which love has planned; That all that is is best for me, In spite of doubts and fears, Adown the shining pathway,— The pathway of the years. [Chorus] 3 I will not ask that I may see The path that lies before; My Father’s hand is holding me, Why should I ask for more? I know His love and pow’r will make, Thru mingled smiles and tears For me a shining pathway, A pathway thru the years. [Chorus] | Hymns for Today: for Sunday Schools, Young People's Societies, The Church, The Home, Community Welfare Associations, and Patriotic Meetings #50 (1920) |
