Lead Me Safely On

Lead me safe­ly on by the nar­row way

From the shores of time to the realms of day;

By the cross of Christ may I ev­er stand

As I jour­ney on to the bet­ter land.

Lead me on

lead me on

By the straight and nar­row way

Lead me on

lead me on

To the realms of end­less day.

With a shep­herd’s care thro’ the night and day

Keep me close to Thee lest I go as­tray;

Lead me safe­ly on by Thy ten­der love

Thro’ this world of sin to my home ab­ove.

Thro’ the storms of life

’mid the ocean’s foam

Lead me safe­ly on to my heav’n­ly home;

At the fount of life on the oth­er shore

Let me free­ly drink till I thirst no more.
