[Verse 1]
He leads me what a blessed thought
What words with heav'nly comfort fraught
Whate'er I do, where'er I be
Still 'tis God's hand that leads me
[Verse 2]
Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom
Sometimes where Eden's bowers bloom
By waters still, o'er troubled sea
Still 'tis his hand that leads me
[Chorus]
He leads me, he leads me
By his own hand he leads me
His faithful follower I would be
For by his hand he leads me
[Verse 3]
Lord, I would place my hand in Thine
Nor ever murmur nor repine;
Content, whatever lot I see
Since 'tis your hand that leads me
[Chorus]
He leads me, he leads me
By his own hand he leads me
His faithful follower I would be
For by his hand he leads me
[Verse 4]
And when my task on earth is done
When by your grace the vict'ry's won
E'en death's cold wave I will not flee
Since God through Jordan leads me
[Chorus]
He leads me, he leads me
By his own hand he leads me
His faithful follower I would be
For by his hand
For by his hand
For by his hand he leads me
