Lead, kindly light, amid the circling gloom; Lead thou me on!
The night is dark and I am far from home; Lead thou me on
Keep thou my feet; I do not ask to see
The distant scene-one step enough for me.
I was not ever thus, nor prayed that thou shouldst lead me on
I loved to choose and see my path; but now Lead thou me on
I loved the garrish day, and, spite of fears,
Pride ruled my will. remember not past years
So long the power blessed me, sure it still, Will lead me on
O'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, til, the night is gone.
and with the moren those angel faces smile,
which I have loved long since, the lost awhile
