G         D7 G 
Lead, kindly Light, 
I was    not ever 
So long thy  pow'r 
  Am11 G    Cadd9 C/E C D D7 
amid   th'encircling  gloom; 
  thus, nor pray'd that thou 
hath blest me, sure it still 
   G/B  D7   G  Am11 D7/A 
   Lead thou me on! 
Shouldst lead me on.  
   Will lead me on 
D7  Am7   D7 G 
The night is dark, 
I loved   to choose 
O'er moor and fen, 
    Am11 G  Cadd9 C/E  C G 
and I    am far   from home; 
and see  my path  but  now, 
o'er crag and torrent, till 
G/D       D  D7 G 
Lead thou me on! 
Lead thou me on! 
The night is gone.  
D    A7/E D  A A7 
Keep thou my feet; 
I   loved the garish 
And with the morn 
  D D/A    A7  D11 D Gadd9/D D7 
  I do not ask to  see 
day, and, spite of fears, 
those angel faces  smile, 
  G   Am G/B  C 
  The distant scene- 
Pride ruled my will.  
Which I  have loved, 
        D7     G/D  D7  D7 G 
    one step enough for me.  
    Remember   not  past years.  
long since, and lost a while.
