Light and Life ‎#34

34. Remember, Jesus leads

1 Ye followers of Christ, go forth,
Your Master's call obey;
Stay not till all the tribes of earth
Shall own his sov'reign sway;
Go, seek the souls that erring stray,
For them a Saviour pleads,
And while you keep the narrow way,
Remember, Jesus leads.

Chorus:
Remember, remember,
Remember, Jesus leads;
Who trust in him are blest,
He leads to perfect rest;
Oh, remember Jesus leads.

2 His faithful ones who ever strive,
His righteous cause to win,
Shall see their Master's work revive,
His vict'ry over sin.
A fallen world in darkness lies,
Each to the rescue speeds,
Tho' foes on ev'ry side arise,
Remember, Jesus leads. [Chorus]

3 Go up against sin's fortress walls,
Go in the strength of grace,
And if a standard bearer falls,
Then you must take his place.
Oh, tell his love that cannot fail,
Make known his glorious deeds,
And tho' you walk thro' death's dark vale,
Remember, Jesus leads. [Chorus]
