Jesus, still lead on

Meter: 5.5.8.8.5.5.

Scripture: Ps. 18:28

1

Jesus, still lead on,

While life’s course is run,

And we’ll follow at Thy bidding,

Meekly in Thy footsteps treading

Guide us by Thy hand

To our fatherland.

2

Should the way be drear,

Let us never fear,

And in days of greatest sorrow

Trust Thee for a bright to-morrow,

For, through-weal and woe,

To our home we go.

3

If we feel the smart

Of a wounded heart,

Or if others’ griefs oppress us,

Still may patience, Lord, possess us;

Let us, ever true,

Keep the end in view.

4

Order Thou our way

All our earthly stay;

Should our path be rough and thorny,

Give us grace meet for the journey;

Then, when life is o'er,

Open wide Thy door.
