Father of love, our Guide and Friend

Hymnal: Voices of Praise #305 (1883) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Father of love, our Guide and Friend, Oh, lead us gently on, Until life's trial time shall end, And heavenly peace be won. 2 We know not what the path may be, As yet by us untrod: But we can trust our all to Thee, Our Father and our God. 3 If called, like Abraham's child, to climb The hill of sacrifice; Some angel may be there in time, Deliverance shall arise. 4 Or if some darker lot be good, Oh, teach us to endure The sorrow, pain, and solitude, That make the spirit pure. 5 Christ by no flowery pathway came, And we His followers here, Must do Thy will, and praise Thy Name, In hope, and love, and fear. 6 And till in Heaven we sinless bow, And faultless anthems raise, O Father, Son, and Spirit, now Accept our feeble praise. AMEN. Languages: English Tune Title: THEODOSIA
