He Leadeth Me


Isaiah 41:10

do not fear, for I am with you,

do not be afraid, for I am your God;

I will strengthen you, I will help you,

I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.

1 He leadeth me: O blessed thought!

O words with heavenly comfort fraught!

Whate’er I do, where’er I be,

still ’tis God’s hand that leadeth me.

Refrain:

He leadeth me, he leadeth me;

by his own hand he leadeth me:

his faithful follower I would be,

I am not a very fearful person. The older I become, the less fearful I am. I think of all of the “fear not” scriptures and remember that in 2 Tim 1:7 I am told God has not given me a spirit of fear, but a sound mind.

for by his hand he leadeth me.

Once again, I woke up singing, this time “ He Leadeth Me” by J.H. Gilmore. And I am comforted by the lyrics, as well as the words found in Isaiah 41 that urge me not to fear.

Join with me today in thanking God for His promises and declaring that “ today is the day the Lord has made—I will rejoice in it and be exceedingly, abundantly glad.

May we today and every day let God lead us and strengthen us as we put our trust in Him.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
