29*. Lead, Light Divine, Amid Th' Encircling Gloom	10,4,10,4,10,10.
by J.H. Newman



1	Lead, light divine, amid th' encircling gloom—	Psalm 5:8; Isaiah 48:17; 1 Samuel 2:9
	Lead Thou me on;
	The night is dark and I am far from home,
	Lead Thou me on.
	Keep Thou my feet; I do not ask to see
	The distant path; one step's enough for me.

2	I was not ever thus, nor prayed that Thou	Hebrews 10:17
	Shouldst lead me on;
	I loved to choose and seek my path; but now,
	Lead Thou me on.
	I loved the garish day, and, spite of fears
	Pride ruled my will: remember not past years.

3	Thus far Thy power hath blessed me, and it still	Romans 13:11; Psalm 30:5; Isaiah 35:10
	Will lead me on,
	O'er moor and fen, through tangled brakes, on till
	The night is gone;
	And with the morn the everlasting joy,
	Which led me on, is mine without alloy.
