Words by James Edmeston Music by Friedrich Filitz [Verse 1]
 G        D7       C           G
Lead us, heavenly Father, lead us

 Em        G      C       D7  G
o’er the world’s tempestuous sea;

            C        G
guard us, guide us, keep us, feed us –

D7      G       D7   A   D7
for we have no help but Thee,

G       D7   G   C         G
yet possessing every blessing

Em  Am  D7  G    D7    G
if our God our Father be.
[Verse 2]
 G         D7        C            G
Saviour, breathe forgiveness o’er us:

 Em      G        C    D7   G
all our weakness Thou dost know:

            C          G
Thou didst tread this earth before us,

D7          G       D7   A   D7
Thou didst feel its keenest woe;

G        D7   G   C         G
lone and dreary, faint and weary,

Em      Am  D7  G    D7        G
through the desert Thou didst go.
[Verse 3]
 G     D7      C           G
Spirit of our God, descending,

 Em        G      C       D7  G
fill our hearts with heavenly joy,

          C       G
love with every passion blending,

D7            G   D7  A   D7
pleasure that can never cloy:

G     D7   G   C         G
thus provided, pardoned, guided,

Em  Am  D7  G    D7       G
nothing can our peace destroy.
