9:25

2 Once earthly joy I craved,
Sought peace and rest;

Now thee alone I seek:

Give what is best;

This all my prayer shall be,
More love, O Christ, to thee,

More love to thee!

3 Let sorrow do its work,
Send grief and pain;
Sweet are thy messengers,
Sweet their refrain,

4

When they can sing with me,

More love, O Christ, to thee,

More love to thee!

Then shall my latest breath

Whisper thy praise,

This be the parting cry

My heart shall raise;

This still its prayer shall be,
More love, O Christ, to thee,

More love to thee!

174 HE LEADETH ME L. M. D.

1. He lead - eth me! O, blessed thought! O, words with heavenly comfort fraught!

4

What- e'er I do, where'er I be, Still 'tis God's hand that lead -eth me.

REFRAIN

He lead-eth me, he lead- eth me! By his own hand he

lead-eth me

His faith-ful fol-lower I would be, For by his hand he lead-eth me. A-MEN.

2 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

3 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 'tis my God that leadeth me. - REFRAIN

Rev. Joseph Henry Gilmore

1. Sav-iour! I follow on, Guided by thee, See- ing not yet the hand

That lead-eth me; Hush'd be my heart and still; Fear I no further ill;

Only to meet thy will My will shall be. Sav-iour, I follow on,

Saviour, I fol-low on, Saviour, I follow on, Guid-ed by thee.
