1 O star of truth now shining,
Thro’ clouds of doubt and fear,
I ask that ‘neath Thy guidance
My pathway may appear.
However long the journey,
How hard so e’er it be,
Though I be lone and weary,
Lead on, I’ll follow Thee.

2 I know Thy blessed radiance
Can never lead astray,
However ancient custom,
May tread some other way.
E’en if thro’ untold deserts,
Or over trackless sea,
Though I be lone and weary,
Lead on, I’ll follow Thee.

3 The bleeding feet of martyrs,
Thy toilsome road trod,
But fires of human passion,
May light the way to God,
Then to my high allegiance
I must not faithless be:
Thro’ life or death, forever,
Lead on, I’ll follow Thee.
