[Intro]
Oh lead me gently home father
Lead me gently home

[Verse 1]
When life's toils are ended
And parting days have come
Sin no more will tempt me
Ne'er from thee I'll roam
If you'll only lead me father
Lead me gently home

[Chorus]
Oh lead me gently home father
Lead me gently home father
If I fall upon the wayside
Lead me gently home
Lead me gently home father
Lead me gently home

[Verse 2]
In life's darkest hours father
When my troubles come
Keep my feet from wandering
There from thee I'll roam
Lest I fall upon the wayside
Lead me gently home
[Chorus]
Oh lead me gently home father
Lead me gently home father
If I fall upon the wayside
Lead me gently home
Lead me gently home father
Lead me gently home
