Lead me gent­ly home, Fa­ther,
Lead me gent­ly home,
When life’s toils are end­ed
And part­ing days have come;
Sin no more shall tempt me,
Ne’er from Thee I’ll roam,
If Thou’lt on­ly lead me, Fa­ther,
Lead me gent­ly home.

Refrain

Lead me gent­ly home, Fa­ther,
Lead me gent­ly
Lest I fall upon the way­side,
Lead me gent­ly home.

Lead me gent­ly home, Fa­ther,
Lead me gent­ly home,
In life’s dark­est hours, Fa­ther,
When life’s trou­bles come;
Keep my feet from wan­d’ring,
Lest from Thee I roam,
Lest I fall up­on the way­side,
Lead me gent­ly home.

Refrain
