Representative Text

1 Jesus is the Friend to trust,
As in doubt we go,
Knowing not the path to take,
Trav’ling here below.

Chorus:
Gently will He lead us on,
In the heav’nly way,
Till we reach the happy home,
Where the angels stay.

2 All our many troubles here,
Love like his can soothe,
Ev’ry rough place in our path,
He will gently smooth. [Chorus]

3 If we heed His gentle call,
Trusting in His love,
He will bring us safe at last,
To that home above. [Chorus]
