Author: James Edmeston Appears in 358 hymnals First Line: Lead us, heavenly Father, lead us Lyrics: 1 Lead us, heavenly Father, lead us
O'er the world's tempestuous sea;
Guard us, guide us, keep us, feed us,
For we have no help but thee;
Yet possessing Every blessing,
If our God our Father be.
2 Saviour, breathe forgive forgiveness o'er us;
All our weakness thou dost know;
Thou didst tread this earth before us;
Thou didst feel its keenest woe;
Lone and dreary. Faint and weary,
Through the desert thou didst go.
3 Spirit of our God, descending,
Fill our hearts with heavenly joy;
Love with every passion blending,
Pleasure that can never cloy;
Thus provided, Pardoned, guided,
Nothing can our peace destroy. Topics: Christians Encouragements; Courage Used With Tune: FENITON COURT
