Desiring to be Led by the Lord

1. Jesus, mighty God and Saviour,
Lead me forth by thy right hand;
And be it my fixed endeavour,
To obey thy sweet command;
Let me never
At a trifling distance stand.

2. Guide, O guide me by thy Spirit;
Leave me not to walk alone;
And by faith may I inherit
The eternal Three-in-One;
And with boldness,
Make thy matchless wonders known.

3. May my soul be sweetly fillèd,
With the treasures of my God;
And my tongue be rightly skillèd,
To proclaim thy truth abroad;
And with pleasure,
God’s eternal love record.
