"Lead me on"
Author: Anon. Appears in 57 hymnals First Line: Traveling to the better land Lyrics: 1 Traveling to the better land,
O'er the desert's scorching sand,
Father! let me grasp thy hand;
Lead me on, lead me on!
2 When at Marah, parched with heat,
I the sparkling fountain greet,
Make the bitter water sweet;
Lead me on!
3 When the wilderness is drear,
Show me Elim's palm-grove near,
And her wells, as crystal clear:
Lead me on!
4 Through the water, through the fire,
Never let me fall or tire,
Every step brings Canaan nigher:
Lead me on!
5 Bid me stand on Nebo's height,
Gaze upon the land of light,
Then, transported with the sight,
Lead me on!
6 When I stand on Jordan's brink.
Never let me fear or shrink;
Hold me, Father, lest I sink:
Lead me on!
7 When the victory is won,
And eternal life begun,
Up to glory lead me on!
Lead me on, lead me on!

Person Name: Unknown Author of "Savior! teach me, day by day" in The Brethren Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
