He Leadeth Me
If we trust the Gentle Shepherd He will take us by the hand, And lead us like His precious sheep Through the fearful land.
We may see the fierce wolf crouching, His cruel and sharp teeth bared, But clinging close to Jesus' side, From those deadly jaws we're spared.
Though there be many wicked snared Along the trails we take, The lamp of Hope is in His hand, Our pathway clear to make.
Though there be valleys where dark billows Of mighty terrors rush- We're with the One Who walked the waters And told the storm to hush.
Satan may be nearby lurking, But encircled in Christ's arm, we need not fear the serpent For his poison cannot harm.
Though we weary grow and thirsty, Our Lord's hand will hold us up, Giving strength, and quenching thirst From His own love-sweetened cup.
And someday, as His trusting sheep, Yearning for the fold, We will look up and behold with joy Heaven's streets of gold.

If we trust the Gentle Shepherd
He will take us by the hand,
And lead us like His precious sheep
Through the fearful land.
We may see the fierce wolf crouching,
His cruel and sharp teeth bared,
But clinging close to Jesus' side,
From those deadly jaws we're spared.
Though there be many wicked snared
Along the trails we take,
The lamp of Hope is in His hand,
Our pathway clear to make.
