Father, Lead Thy Little Children

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1883
Composer: Howard Doane

Father

lead Thy lit­tle child­ren

Very ear­ly to Thy throne;

We will have no gods be­fore Thee;

Thou art God

and Thou alone.

Lead

O lead Thy lit­tle child­ren

Very ear­ly to Thy throne;

We will have no gods be­fore Thee;

Thou art God

and Thou alone.

In the Bi­ble Thou hast taught us

All our thoughts to Thee are known;

Thou canst see us in the dark­ness;

Thou art God

and Thou alone.

Though the hea­then bow to id­ols

They have made of wood and stone

We have Christ­ian friends to tell us

Thou art God

and Thou alone.

Thou dost give us all our com­forts

Everything we call our own

Comes from Thee

our heav’n­ly Fa­ther;

Thou art God

and Thou alone.
