[Verse 1]
CHe leadeth me! O Fblessed thought!
O Cwords with heavenly comfort Gfraught!
What-Ce'er I do, wher-Fe'er I be,
Still 'Ctis God's Amhand that CleadG7-eth Cme.
[Refrain]
CHe leadeth Gme, G7He Clead-Feth Cme,
FBy CHis own Amhand He Cleadeth Gme;
G7His Cfaithful Gfol-G7lower CI Fwould Cbe,
FFor Cby His Amhand He Clead-G7eth Cme.
[Verse 2]
CSome-times 'mid scenes of Fdeepest gloom,
Some-Ctimes where Eden's bow-Gers bloom,
By Cwaters still, o'er Ftroubled sea
Still 'Ctis His Amhand that Clead-G7eth Cme!
[Refrain]
CHe leadeth Gme, G7He Clead-Feth Cme,
FBy CHis own Amhand He Cleadeth Gme;
G7His Cfaithful Gfol-G7lower CI Fwould Cbe,
FFor Cby His Amhand He Clead-G7eth Cme.
[Verse 3]
CLord, I would clasp my Fhand in Thine,
Nor Cever mur-mur nor Grepine;
Con-Ctent, whatever Flot I see, 
Since 'Ctis my AmGod that Clead-G7eth Cme.
[Refrain]
CHe leadeth Gme, G7He Clead-Feth Cme,
FBy CHis own Amhand He Cleadeth Gme;
G7His Cfaithful Gfol-G7lower CI Fwould Cbe,
FFor Cby His Amhand He Clead-G7eth Cme.
[Verse 4]
CAnd when my task on Fearth is done,
When, Cby Thy grace, the victoryG's won,
E'en Cdeath's cold wave I Fwill not flee,
Since CGod through AmJordan Clead-G7eth Cme.
[Refrain]
CHe leadeth Gme, G7He Clead-Feth Cme,
FBy CHis own Amhand He Cleadeth Gme;
G7His Cfaithful Gfol-G7lower CI Fwould Cbe,
FFor Cby His Amhand He Clead-G7eth Cme.
