Lead Us, O Father, in the Paths of Peace

1. Lead us, O Father, in the paths of peace; Without thy
2. Lead us, O Father, in the paths of truth; Unhelped by
guiding hand we go astray, And doubts appall, and
thee, in error's maze we grope, While passion stains and
sorrows still increase; Lead us through Christ, the true and living way.
folly dims our youth, And age comes on uncheered by faith or hope.

3. Lead us, O Father, in the paths of right;
Blindly we stumble when we walk alone,
Involved in shadows of a darkening night;
Only with thee we journey safely on.

4. Lead us, O Father, to thy heavenly rest,
However rough and steep the pathway be,
Through joy or sorrow, as thou deemest best,
Until our lives are perfected in thee.
