He leadeth me: O blessed thought!

still ’tis God’s hand that leadeth me.

1
He leadeth me: O blessed thought!
O words with heavenly comfort fraught!
Whate’er I do, where’er I be,
Still ’tis God’s hand that leadeth me.

Refrain
He leadeth me, He leadeth me,
By His own hand He leadeth me;
His faithful follower I would be,
For by His hand He leadeth me.

2
Sometimes ‘mid scenes of deepest gloom,
Sometimes where Eden’s bowers bloom,
By waters still, o’er troubled sea,
Still ’tis His hand that leadeth me.

3
Lord, I would clasp my hand in Thine,
Nor ever murmur nor repine;
Content, whatever lot I see,
Since ’tis my God that leadeth me.

4
And when my task on earth is done,
When by Thy grace, the victory’s won,
E’en death’s cold wave I will not flee,
Since God through Jordan leadeth me.

Notes

The God of the universe consents to lead us in every affair of life. Will we consent to be His faithful follower? This is the secret of blessing and true success in every facet of life. (Lesson 8, 1st Quarter 2023, Managing for the Master – Tuesday, “Seeking Godly Counsel” 2/22/23)
