1. So nimm denn meine Hände
und führe mich
bis an mein selig Ende
und ewiglich.
Ich mag allein nicht gehen,
nicht einen Schritt:
wo du wirst gehn und stehen,
da nimm mich mit.

2. In dein Erbarmen hülle
mein schwaches Herz
und mach es gänzlich stille
in Freud und Schmerz.
Lass ruhn zu deinen Füßen
dein armes Kind:
es will die Augen schließen
Und glauben blind.

3. Wenn ich auch gleich nichts fühle
von deiner Macht,
du führst mich doch zum Ziele
auch durch die Nacht:
so nimm denn meine Hände
und führe mich
bis an mein selig Ende
und ewiglich!

Music: So Nimm Denn Meine Hände, Friedrich Silcher (1789-1860), 1842

1. O take my hand, dear Father, and lead thou me,

Till at my journey’s ending I dwell with thee.

Alone I cannot wander one single day,

So do thou guide my footsteps on life’s rough way.

2. O cover with thy mercy my poor, weak heart,

Lest I in joy or sorrow from thee depart.

Permit thy child to linger here at thy feet,
Thy goodness blindly trusting with faith complete.

3. Though oft thy power but faintly may stir my soul,

With thee, my Light in darkness, I reach the goal.

Take then my hand, dear Father, and lead thou me,

Till at my journey’s ending I dwell with Thee.
