[Verse 1]
He leadeth me, O blessed thought
O words with heavenly comfort fraught
Whate'er I do, where're 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 follower I would be
For by His hand He leadeth me

[Verse 2]
Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom
Sometimes where Eden's flowers bloom
By waters still, o'er troubled sea
Still 'tis His hand that leadeth me

[Chorus]
He leadeth me, He leadeth me
By His own hand He leadeth me
His faithful follower I would be
For by His hand He leadeth me

[Verse 3]
Lord, I would clasp Thy hand in mine
Nor ever murmur, nor repine
Content whatever lot I see
Since 'tis Thy hand that leadeth me
[Chorus]
He leadeth me, He leadeth me
By His own hand He leadeth me
His faithful follower I would be
For by His hand He leadeth me

[Verse 4]
And when my task on earth is done
When, by Thy grace, the victory's won
E'en death's cold wave I will not flee
Since God through Jordan leadeth me

[Chorus]
He leadeth me, He leadeth me
By His own hand He leadeth me
His faithful follower I would be
For by His hand He leadeth me
He leadeth me
He leadeth me, He leadeth me
By His own hand He leadeth me
His faithful follower I would be
For by His hand He leadeth me
