1. Father, lead me, day by day, Ever in Thine own sweet way; Teach me to be pure and true; Show me what I ought to do. 2. When in danger, make me brave; Make me know that Thou canst save; Keep me safe by thy dear side; Let me in Thy love abide. 3. When I’m tempted to do wrong Make me steadfast, wise, and strong; And, when all alone, I stand, Shield me with Thy mighty hand. 4. When my heart is full of glee, Help me to remember Thee, Happy most of all to know That my Father loves me so. 5. May I do the good I know, Be thy loving child below, Then at last go home to Thee Evermore Thy child to be.
