He Leadeth Me
Words: Joseph H. Gilmore, 1862
Music: William B. Bradbury, 1864
VERSE 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.
CHORUS:
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.
VERSE 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.
CHORUS:
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.
VERSE 3:
Lord, I would place my hand in
thine,
Nor ever murmur nor repine;
Content, whatever lot I see,
Since 'tis my God that leadeth
me.
CHORUS:
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.
VERSE 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.
CHORUS:
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.
