When the way seems dark and long
And I pass me to gone
Hold to my hand dear Lord I pray
Give me grace to shout and shine
Ever in the life divine
Lord lead me on from day to day
Oh lead me on from day to day
I want to walk the holy way
Oh friends forsake me all along
I asked the Lord to lead me on
When old age is feeling on
And my strength is almost gone
Hold to my hand dear I pray
Surely thou will never forsake
And in heaven I'll awake
Lord lead me on from day to day
Oh lead me on from day to day
I want to walk the holy way
Oh friends forsake me all along
I asked the Lord to lead me on
