776. Dear Saviour, lead my erring steps aright

1 Dear Saviour, lead my erring steps aright,
I'll follow thee;
I dare not trust to feeble, mortal sight;
I'll follow thee.
The night is dark, lest I should lose my way,
I'll follow thee;
O lead me till the glorious dawn of day!
I'll follow thee.

2 When night is darkest, and I cannot see,
I'll follow thee;
I know the cheering voice that speaks to me;
I'll follow thee.
'Tis mine to trust the One who knoweth best;
I'll follow thee;
And, trusting thus, I leave to him the rest;
I'll follow thee.

3 O'er all my daily thoughts and steps preside;
I'll follow thee;
Be thou alone my constant Guard and Guide;
I'll follow thee.
Unworthy of thy watch-care though I be,
I'll follow thee;
Then with the blest through all eternity
I'll follow thee.
