Lyrics

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
I was not ever thus, nor prayed that thou
Shouldst lead me on
I loved to choose and see my path, but now
Lead thou me on
I loved the garish day, and, spite of fears
Pride ruled my will: remember not past years
So long thy power hath blest me, sure it still
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 had loved long since, and lost awhile
Lead thou me on
Written by: Charles Henry Purday, John Bacchus Dykes, John Henry Newman
