Lead Me, Father

Lead me

Fa­ther

lead

I pray

For the night is dark and wild

And I can­not see my way;

Father

lead Thy trem­bling child.

Lead me

Fa­ther

lead me

Fa­ther

For the night is dark and wild;

Lead me

Fa­ther

lead

O lead me

Lead Thy trem­bling child.

Lead me when the morn­ing dawns

Lest in paths of sin I stray

Lest earth’s plea­sures lure my soul

Lead me in the nar­row way.

Lead me in the noon­day clear

When night’s sha­dows all are gone

Lest I leave Thy ten­der care

Lest I dare to walk alone.

When the ev­en­ing draw­eth on

And my cour­age ebbs away

Lead me then till comes the dawn

Of the ev­er­last­ing day.
