The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook ‎#106b

106b. Lead, kindly light, amid the encircling gloom

3 So long Your power has blessed me, sure it still will lead me on,
o'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, till
the night is gone,
and with the morn those angel faces smile,
which I have loved long since, and lost awhile.
