Zeab, kfnbly? Zfgbt
EAD, kfndly Light, amid the encircling gloom
Lead Thou m on!
The night is dark, and I am far from home.
Lead Thou me on I
Keep Thou my feet; I do not ask to see
The dist- scene; - one step enough for me.
I was not ever thus, nor pray'd that Thou
Shouldst lead me on.
I loved tq 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 Th power hath blest me, sure it still
hill lead me on.
O'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, tlll
The night is gone;
And with the marn those angel faces smjle
Which I have loved long since, and lost awhile.
