The Home Circle.

HE KNOWS BEST.

LET Jesus lead thee: surely he knows best Which way is safest for the earnest soul; Walk where he leads, and trust him for the rest, And he will bring thee to the highest goal.
Let Jesus help thee: surely he knows best What is thy strength, and what thy toil and need; Do what thou canst, and leave to him the rest, And he will make thy trust thy noblest deed.
Let Jesus teach thee: surely he knows best What lessons thou dost need to make thee wise; Receive what he makes plain, and leave the rest Till thou shalt see him with immortal eyes.
Let Jesus keep thee: surely he knows best What hidden dangers lie along thy way; Go, watch and fight and pray, and leave the rest To him who is thy everlasting stay.
