  (Psa. 27:11.)
(Job 5:18.)

Let Him lead and let Him bless;
Let Him save thee from distress,—
(Psa. 23:3.)
(Psa. 67:7.)
(Psa. 107:13.)
Let Him teach thee.
 
   
Let Him guide thee with His eye:
Let His hand thy need supply;
Let His goodness satisfy,—
 

(Psa. 32:8.)
(Phil. 4:19.)
(Psa. 65:4.)

Let Him teach thee.
 
   
Let His good Word sanctify;
Let the furnace purify;
Let Him say, “Fear not; ’tis I,”—
  (John 17:17.)
(1 Peter 1:7.)
(Mark 6:50.)
Let Him teach thee.
 
   
Let Him probe thy heart within;
Let Him search out every sin;
Let the glorious light shine in,—
  (Psa. 66:10.)
(Psa. 139:23.)

Let Him teach thee.
 
   
Let the Shepherd kindly feed;
Let Him firmly, truly lead;
He’ll not break the bruised reed
 
(Isa. 40:11.)
(Isa. 42:3.)
Let Him teach thee.
 
   
Let Him give thee songs at night;
Let Him make the darkness light
Let Him set thy spirit right,—
  (Job 35:10.)
(Isa. 42:16.)
(Psa. 51:10.)
Let Him teach thee.
 
   
In the tumult let Him hide,
Let Him keep thee at His side;
Let His name be glorified,—
  (Psa. 27:5; 31:20.)
(Ex. 33:21.)
(Isa. 61:3.)
Let Him teach thee.
