142. Lead Me, O My Savior

1 Lead me, O my Savior, lead me,
Gently hold my hand in Thine, in Thine;
Evermore and more I need Thee,
Precious Lord, my friend divine, divine.

Refrain:
Lead me on, Savior, blessed Savior,
Keep me from the way of strife;
Teach me, Lord, help me seek Thy favor,
And to walk the way of life.

2 Keep me, O my Savior, keep me,
Lest my feet should go astray, astray;
Lest some tide of sin should sweep me,
From the straight and narrow way, the way. [Refrain]

3 Teach me, O my Savior, teach me,
Lest Thy word my comfort be, shall be;
When the hand of death shall reach me,
Take me home to dwell with Thee, with Thee. [Refrain]
