Representative Text

1 Lead us, Saviour, lead us ever,
With Thy gently guiding hand;
Lead us through the joys and sorrows,
Of an unseen future land.

Refrain:
Lead us, Saviour, lead us ever,
Safely guide our wand’ring feet,
Lead us on to lands of beauty,
Pastures green and meadows sweet.

2 Lead us, Saviour, lead us ever,
Without Thee afar we roam;
Lead us through the storm and darkness,
To the light and peace of home. [Refrain]
