Our Chancel Choir sang Lead Me by Samuel S. Wesley on Sunday. The melody and lyrics of this anthem combine to form a beautiful prayer. Perhaps you’ll want to say it or sing along with the Cathedral Choir during your prayer time this week …
Lead me, Lord, lead me in thy righteousness.
Make Thy way plain before my face.
For it is Thou, Lord, only, that makes me dwell in safety.
Teach me to feel that Thou art always nigh;
Teach me the struggles of the soul to bear,
To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh;
Teach me the patience of unanswered prayer.
Teach me to love Thee as Thine angels love,
One holy passion filling all my frame,
The baptism of the heaven descended Dove,
My heart an altar and Thy love the flame. Amen.
