| Take, then, my hands, O Father, And lead Thou me Until my journey endeth, Eternally. 160 Alone I will not wander One single day. Be Thou my true Companion And with me stay. | | O cover with Thy mercy My poor, weak heart! Let ev’ry thought rebellious From me depart. Permit Thy child to linger Here at Thy feet And blindly trust Thy goodness With faith complete. | | Though naught of Thy great power May move my soul, With Thee through night and darkness I reach the goal. Take, then, my hands, O Father, And lead Thou me Until my journey endeth, Eternally. | |
