He Leadeth Me! Oh, Blessed Thought

Words: Joseph H. Gilmore · Music: William Bradbury · 1862

Verse 1
He leadeth me: oh, blessed thought!
Oh, words with heav'nly 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 foll'wer I would be,
for by his hand he leadeth me.

Verse 2
Lord, I would clasp thy hand in mine,
nor ever murmur nor repine,
content, whatever lot I see,
since 'tis my God that leadeth me.

Verse 3
And when at last my race is run,
the Savior's work in me is done,
e'en death's cold wave I will not flee,
since God through Jordan leadeth me.
