"Lead Me Father" lyrics

Lead Me Father

When my hands are tired
And my step is slow
Walk beside me and give me
The strength to go
Fill my face with Your courage
So defeat won't show
Pick me up when I stumble
So the world won't know

Lead me Father
With the staff of life
Give me the strength for a song
That the words I sing
Might more strength bring
To help some poor troubled
Weary worker along

When my way is light
But I still can see
With a strong hand strike out
The blindness in me
Show me work that I should
Carry on for Thee
Make my way straight and narrow
Like You wanted to be

Lead me Father
With the staff of life
Give me the strength for a song
That the words I sing
Might more strength bring
To help some poor troubled
Weary worker along
