he leadeth me
C F
He leadeth me! O bless-ed tho't,
C G
O words with heav’n-ly com-fort fraught;
C F
What-e’er I do, wher-e’er I be,
C Am G C
Still ’tis God’s hand that lead-eth me.

Refrain
C G F C
He lead-eth me! He lead-eth me!
Am C G
By His own hand He lead-eth me;
C G F C
His faith-ful fol-l'wer I would be,
Am C G C
For by His hand He lead-eth me.
C F
Some-times ’mid scenes of deep-est gloom,
C G
Some-times where E-den’s bow-ers bloom,
C F
By wa-ters still, o’er trou-bled sea,
C Am G C
Still ’tis God’s hand that lead-eth me.
