Hymn 361: Jesus, still lead on,

Jesu, ma to wa

  1. Jesus, still lead on,
    Till our rest be won,
    And, although the way be cheerless,
    We will follow calm and fearless,
    Guide us by Thy hand
    To our Fatherland.

  2. If the way be drear,
    If the foe be near,
    Let no faithless fears o’ertake us,
    Let not faith and hope forsake us,
    For through many a foe
    To our home we go.

  3. When we seek relief
    From a long felt grief;
    When temptations come alluring,
    Make us patient and enduring;
    Show us that bright shore
    Where we weep no more.

  4. Jesus, still lead on,
    Till our rest be won;
    Heavenly Leader, still direct us,
    Still support, control, protect us,
    Till we safely stand
    In our fatherland. Amen.
