Looking Unto Jesus

I dare not travel this wide world alone,
With dangers everywhere I stand,
And none to take me by the hand
And be my guide, But You, O Lord,
Have promised in Your faithful Word
        To lead me on.

I do not ask to live a life of ease,
Nor do I ask for worldly praise,
For cloudless skies through all my days;
But just that You will keep me still,
To mold and bend me to Your will,
        And lead me on.

I know not where the pathway leads ahead,
Nor do I know how much it winds and twists,
It matters not the way, nor how,
But this I know, dear Lord, that You
        Will lead me on.

I would not fret or faint upon the way,
But trust You for my all in all;
Teach me to heed Your loving call,
And learn to say; "You know the best."
        Still lead me on.
