lead on o king eternal

lead on

o king eternal

till sin's fierce war shall cease

and holiness shall whisper

the sweet amen of peace

for not with swords' loud clashing

nor roll of stirring drums

but deeds of love and mercy

the heavenly kingdom comes

let your kingdom come

and your will be done

right here on the earth

like it is in heaven

lead on

o king eternal

we follow not with fears

for gladness breaks like morning

where'er thy face appears

let your kingdom come

and your will be done

right here on the earth

like it is in heaven

oh-whoa

let your kingdom come

and your will be done

right here on the earth

like it is in heaven

thy cross is lifted o'er us

we journey in its light

we follow as you guide us

lead on

o god of might
