Dear Saviour, lead my erring steps aright

1

Dear Saviour, lead my erring steps aright,I'll follow thee;I dare not trust to feeble, mortal sight;I'll follow thee.The night is dark,—lest I should lose my way,I'll follow thee;O lead me till the glorious dawn of day!I'll follow thee.

2

When night is darkest, and I cannot see,I'll follow thee;I know the cheering voice that speaks to me;I'll follow thee.'T is mine to trust the One who knoweth best;I'll follow thee;And, trusting thus, I leave to him the rest;I'll follow thee.

3

O'er all my daily thoughts and steps preside;I'll follow thee;Be thou alone my constant Guard and Guide;I'll follow thee.Unworthy of thy watch-care though I be,I'll follow thee;Then with the blest through all eternityI'll follow thee.
