1 Father, lead me, for I need Thee Ev’ry step of life’s long way; Thou alone art e’er unchanging, Give Thy presence day by day.
Refrain: Father, lead me now and ever, For I know Thy way is best, Fold me closer, fold me closer, Let me find in Thee sweet rest.
2 From all sin and fear of falling Fully free my soul would be; And with humble, child-like trusting, I would follow only Thee. [Refrain]
3 Father, lead me until evening, When shall set life’s fleeting sun, And I bring my sheaves all golden, Then to hear Thee say, “Well done.” [Refrain]Source: Jubilate : A Modern Sunday-School Hymnal #47
