All the way my Saviour leads me
Hymn written by Fanny (Frances) Jane Crosby, 1820-1915
All the way my savior leads me;
What have I to ask beside?
Can I doubt His tender mercy,
Who thro' life has been my guide?
Heav'nly peace divinest comfort,
Here by faith in Him to dwell!
For I know whate'er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well;
For I know whate'er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well;
All the way my Savior leads me;
Cheers each winding path I tread,
Gives me grace for ev'ry trial,
Feeds me with the living bread;
Tho' my weary steps may falter,
And my soul athirst may be,
Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo! a spring of joy I see;
Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo! a spring of joy I see;
All the way, my Savior leads me;
Oh, the fullness of His love!
Perfect rest to me is promised
In my Father's house above:
When my spirit, clothed immortal,
Wings its flight to realms of day,
This my song thro' endless ages:
Jesus led me all the way;
This my song thro' endless ages:
Jesus led me all the way;
This song has brought comfort to many who has been seeking and hanging on to faith. Those who were in prison and those who were persecuted for His name.
"Can I doubt His tender mercy,
Who thro' life has been my guide?"
"For I know whate'er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well;"
All the way my savior leads me;
What have I to ask beside?
Can I doubt His tender mercy,
Who thro' life has been my guide?
Heav'nly peace divinest comfort,
Here by faith in Him to dwell!
For I know whate'er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well;
For I know whate'er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well;
All the way my Savior leads me;
Cheers each winding path I tread,
Gives me grace for ev'ry trial,
Feeds me with the living bread;
Tho' my weary steps may falter,
And my soul athirst may be,
Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo! a spring of joy I see;
Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo! a spring of joy I see;
All the way, my Savior leads me;
Oh, the fullness of His love!
Perfect rest to me is promised
In my Father's house above:
When my spirit, clothed immortal,
Wings its flight to realms of day,
This my song thro' endless ages:
Jesus led me all the way;
This my song thro' endless ages:
Jesus led me all the way;
This song has brought comfort to many who has been seeking and hanging on to faith. Those who were in prison and those who were persecuted for His name.
"Can I doubt His tender mercy,
Who thro' life has been my guide?"
"For I know whate'er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well;"
Just like in the bible, one of the disciples say "Where can I go? You have the words of eternal life."
Many times I wonder about my faith. I wonder if there is a God. Today, my favorite Aussie friend said... To him, faith is simply the medium through we see God. God remains the same yesterday, today and forever. He is always there. It is our faith that cause us to see him differently. When we do not see him, it is because our faith has been clouded. Imagine God standing in front of us. He is always there. Faith is like wearing glasses. Some may be opaque. Some clear. Some tainted. Some cloudy. Some scratched and thus blocked our view. The filter that our faith has to go through is our experiences, our worldview. Our cultures. Our situation. But God is always "just there". God is always leading and guiding. All the way, my Saviour leads me. May I come to say "For whatever befalls me, Jesus doeth all things well."
