Refrain: Jesus leads us on through all the troubled years, Thro' we faint and falter by the way; Jesus leads us on thro' doubts and fears To a clearer, brighter day. 2 Thro' the joy and gladness, through the tears and sadness, We will follow if he only leads us on; He will blessings send us, ever will defend us, If we follow where he leads us on. [Refrain] 3 With our faith to brighten, and his love to lighten, Every cloud and burden while he leads us on;— Never cease our singing till we hear the ringing Of the harps when heaven's morn shall dawn.

C. Austin Miles

1868 - 1946 Hymnal Title: Calvin Hymnary Project Author of "Jesus Leads Us On" Charles Austin Miles USA 1868-1946. Born at Lakehurst, NJ, he attended the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and the University of PA. He became a pharmacist. He married Bertha H Haagen, and they had two sons: Charles and Russell. In 1892 he abandoned his pharmacy career and began writing gospel songs. At first he furnished compositions to the Hall-Mack Publishing Company, but soon became editor and manager, where he worked for 37 years. He felt he was serving God better in the gospel song writing business, than as a pharmacist. He published the following song books: “New songs of the gospel” (1900), “The service of praise” (1900), “The voice of praise” (1904), “The tribute of song” (1904), “New songs of the gospel #2” (1905), “Songs of service” (1910), “Ideal Sunday school hymns” (1912). He wrote and/or composed 400+ hymns. He died in Philadelphia, PA. John Perry
