¶ Verse 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.
¶ Verse 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 woe
To our home we go.
¶ Verse 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.
¶ Verse 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.
