Words John Henry Newman, Music John B. Dykes

By request: a simple version of this loved hymn for choir and organ. There is a short acapella section for the choir, but if you desire you can have the organist double the choir on their parts.

The Text:
Lead, kindly Light, amid thencircling gloom, 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 scene; one step enough for me.

I was not ever thus, nor prayed that Thou shouldst lead me on;
I loved to choose and see 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!

So long Thy power hath blest me, sure it still will lead me on.
Oer moor and fen, oer crag and torrent, till the night is gone,
And with the morn those angel faces smile, which I
Have loved long since, and lost awhile!
