He Leadeth Me

Описание: After hearing of Amber's Grandaddy dying from a car accident, a couple songs were coming to mind, this being one of them. So thankful to the Lord for His comfort and hope; that we do not have to sorrow as those who have no hope.
A treat to do another song with my lovely wife. Big thumbs up for Amber, as I was having trouble remembering to take bigger breaths, while she is close to 37 weeks pregnant and has a better reason than I for being short of breath. :-)

Lyrics:
He leadeth me, O blessed thought!
O words with heav’nly comfort fraught!
Whate’er I do, where’er I be
Still ’tis God’s hand that leadeth me.

[Refrain]
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.

Sometimes ’mid scenes of deepest gloom,
Sometimes where Eden’s bowers bloom,
By waters still, o’er troubled sea,
Still ’tis His hand that leadeth me. [refrain]

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. [refrain]

And when my task on earth is done,
When by Thy grace the vict’ry’s won,
E’en death’s cold wave I will not flee,
Since God through Jordan leadeth me. [refrain]
