Oh lead me gently home father Lead me gently home When life's toils are ended And parting days have come Sin no more will tempt me There from thee I'll roam If you'll only lead me father Lead me gently home Oh lead me gently home father Lead me gently home father If I fall upon the wayside Lead me gently home Lead me gently home father Lead me gently home In life's darkest hours father When my troubles come Keep my feet from wandering There from thee I'll roam Lest I fall upon the wayside Lead me gently home Oh lead me gently home father Lead me gently home father If I fall upon the wayside Lead me gently home Lead me gently home
