Author: Harry Armstrong Hymnal: Christ in Song #669 (1908) First Line: Lead Thou me on, and then my feet tho' weary Lyrics: 1 Lead Thou me on, and then my feet tho' weary, Shall never falter in life's rugged way; And tho' my pathway lead thro' wilds most dreary, Guided by thee my feet shall never stray. 2 Fill me with love, and then my life shall ever Show forth the light of Thy sweet love divine; And tho' this world my heart from Thee would sever, I still rejoice in knowing Thou art mine. 3 Give me Thy grace, the grace that more aboundeth When all the hosts of sin upon me roll; And tho' life's care my lonely way surroundeth, Still I can rest, if Thou my life control. 4 Give me Thy peace that passeth understanding, And wraps the soul in calm and sweet repose; And tho' the storms would keep my soul from landing, At length I'll anchor, safe from all my foes. 5 Lord, well I know, all these, and more are given, With Christ in whom all heav'nly riches dwell; In Him by faith I grasp the joys of heaven, And taste the bliss my tongue now fails to tell.

F. E. Belden

1858 - 1945 Composer of "[Lead thou me on, and then my feet, tho' weary]" in The Gospel Song Sheaf Belden was born in Battle Creek, Michigan in 1858. He began writing music in his late teenage years after moving to California with his family. For health reasons he later moved to Colorado. He returned to Battle Creek with his wife in the early 1880s, and there he became involved in Adventist Church publishing. F. E. Belden wrote many hymn tunes, gospel songs, and related texts in the early years of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Belden was able to rapidly write both music and poetry together which enabled him to write a song to fit a sermon while it was still being delivered. He also wrote songs for evangelist Billy Sunday. Though Belden’s later years were marred by misunderstandings with the church leadership over his royalties, he did donate his papers and manuscripts to the church’s seminary at his death. He died on December 2, 1945 in Battle Creek, Michigan. N.N., Hymnary. Source: http://www.hymntime.com/tch/bio/b/e/l/belden_fe.htm
