Author: Nicholas Louis, Count Zinzendorf, 1700-1760 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #287a (1901) Meter: 5.5.8.8.5.5 Hymnal Title: Hymnal and Order of Service Lyrics: 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!
2 If the way be drear,
If the foe be near,
Let not faithless fears o'ertake us,
Let not faith and hope forsake us;
For through many a woe
To our home we go!
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!
4 Jesus, still lead on,
Till our rest is won;
Heavenly Leader, still direct us,
Still support, console, protect us,
Till we safely stand
In our Fatherland! Topics: Sanctification Languages: English Tune Title: SEELENBRÄUTIGAM
