87 ~ Lead Us, Heavenly Father

1

Lead us, heavenly Father, lead us O'er the world's tempestuos 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 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 Thoudidst 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.
