He Leads Us On

By Shadow of the Rock

He leads us on By paths we did not know, Upward he leads us, though our steps be slow, Though oft we faint and falter on the way, Though storms and darkness oft obscure the day, Yet, when the clouds are gone, We know he leads us on.

He leads us on Through all the unquiet years; Past all our dreamland hopes, and doubts, and fears, He guides our steps. Through all the tangled maze Of sin, of sorrow, and o’erclouded days We know his will is done; And still he leads us on.

And he, at last, After the weary strife— After the restless fever we call life— After the dreariness, the aching pain, The wayward struggles which have proved in vain— After our toils are past— Will give us rest at last.
