Author: Nicholas Ludwig von Zinzendorf; Christian Gregor; Jane L. Borthwick Hymnal: Mor1995 #799 (1995) Meter: 5.5.8.8.5.5 Person Name: Nicholas Ludwig von Zinzendorf 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 your hand
to the promised land.
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;
safely past the foe
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 be won;
heav'nly leader, still direct us,
still support, console, protect us,
till we safely stand
in the promised land. Topics: Journey; Christ--Guidance; Courage; Journey; Temptation of believers Scripture: Joshua 1:16-17 Languages: English Tune Title: SEELENBRÄUTIGAM
