Lead Kindly Light

Lead, kindly light
Amid the encircling gloom
Lead Thou me on
The night is dark
And I am far from home
Lead Thou me on
Keep Thou my feet
I do not ask to see
The distant scene
One step enough for me
Be still, my soul, the Lord is on your side
Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain
Leave to Thy God to order and provide
In every change God faithful will remain
Be still, my soul, your best, your heavenly, Friend
Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end
So long Thy power hath blest me
Sure it still will lead — will lead me on
O’er moor and fen, o’er crag and torrent
Till the night is gone
And with the morn those angel faces smile
Which I have loved long since and lost awhile
Which I have loved long since and lost awhile
