1. Lead, kindly Light, amid th' encircling gloom, Lead Thou me on; The night is dark, and I am far from home; Lead Thou me on: Keep Thou my feet; I do not ask to see The distant scene-- One step enough for me. |
2. I was not ever thus, Nor prayed that Thou shouldst lead me on; I loved to choose and see my path; But now lead Thou me on. I loved the garish day, And, spite of fears, Pride ruled my will: remember not past years. |

3. So long Thy power hath blest me, Sure it still will lead me on, O'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, Till the night is gone; And with the morn Those angel faces smile, Which I have loved long since, And lost awhile. |
