[Intro]
A Em A F#m Bm-E A
[Verse 1]
A D
He leadeth me: O blessed thought!
A F#m E
O words with heavenly comfort fraught!
A D
Whate'er I do, where'er I be,
A F#m Bm-E A
Still 'tis God's hand that leadeth me.
[Refrain]
A E D A
He leadeth me, he leadeth me,
F#m Bm E
By his own hand he leadeth me;
A E D A
His faithful follower I would be,
F#m Bm-E A
For by his hand he leadeth me.
[Verse 2]
A D
Sometimes mid scenes of deepest gloom,
A F#m E
Sometimes where Eden's bowers bloom,
A D
By waters still, o'er troubled sea,
A F#m Bm-E A
Still 'tis His hand that leadeth me.
[Verse 3]
A D
Lord, I would place my hand in thine,
A F#m E
Nor ever murmur nor repine;
A D
Content, whatever lot I see,
A F#m Bm-E A
Since 'tis my God that leadeth me.
[Verse 4]
A D
And when my task on earth is done,
A F#m E
When by thy grace the victory's won,
A D
E'en death's cold wave I will not flee,
A F#m Bm-E A
Since God through Jordan leadeth me.
