(Gadsby's Hymns) #289 (1844) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Thus far my God has led me on, And made his truth and mercy known; My hopes and fears alternate rise, And comforts mingle with my sighs. 2 [Through this wide wilderness I roam, Far distant from my blissful home; Lord, let thy presence be my stay, And guard me in this dangerous way.] 3 [Temptations everywhere annoy, And sins and snares oft make me sigh; My earthly joys are from me torn, And oft an absent God I mourn.] 4 My soul, with various tempests tossed, Her hopes o’erturned, her projects crossed, Sees every day new straits attend, And wonders where the scene will end. 5 Is this, dear Lord, that thorny road Which leads us to the mount of God? Are these the toils thy people know, While in this wilderness below? 6 ’Tis even so; thy faithful love Does all thy children’s graces prove; ’Tis thus our pride and self must fall That Jesus may be all in all.
