about

This beautiful hymn from the late 19th century is about the hope and confidence we can have in a sovereign God whose power guides and protects us through both times of peace and times of trial.

That hope is why we wanted to use our recording as a giving opportunity for The Lamb Center in Fairfax, VA. Their staff, volunteers, and supporters seek to bring gospel hope to the homeless every day.

When you donate to download the song, all proceeds will go directly to The Lamb Center and their kingdom work. We hope you join us in partnering with them!

-Christy, Allie, Ginny from Quiet Hour Collective

lyrics

He leadeth me: O blessed thought!
O words with heav'nly comfort fraught!
Whate'er I do, where'er I be,
Still 'tis God's hand that leadeth me.

Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom,
Sometimes where Eden's bowers bloom,
By waters calm, o'er troubled sea,
Still 'tis his hand that leadeth me.

He leadeth me, he leadeth me;
By his own hand he leadeth me:
His faithful foll'wer I would be,
For by his hand he leadeth me.

Lord, I would clasp thy hand in mine,
Nor ever murmur nor repine;
Content whatever lot I see,
Since 'tis my God that leadeth me.

He leadeth me, he leadeth me;
By his own hand he leadeth me:
His faithful foll'wer I would be,
For by his hand he leadeth me.

And when my task on earth is done,
When, by thy grace, the vict'ry's won,
E'en death's cold wave I will not flee,
Since God through Jordan leadeth me.

He leadeth me, he leadeth me;
By his own hand he leadeth me:
His faithful foll'wer I would be,
For by his hand he leadeth me.

He leadeth me, he leadeth me;
By his own hand he leadeth me:
His faithful foll'wer I would be,
For by his hand he leadeth me.
