Daily Cheer for All the YearHe leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His Name's sake.—Ps. xxiii, 3.
He leadeth me! Oh, blessed thought!
Oh, words with heavenly comfort fraught!
Whate'er I do, where'er I be,
Still 'tis God's hand that leadeth me.
Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom,
Sometimes where Eden's bowers bloom,
By waters calm, o'er troubled sea,
Still 'tis God's hand that leadeth me.

Like Alpine climbers, our only safety is in stead- fastly fixing our gaze on Him, our Guide, and follow- ing step by step the path He trod, that He might know all the dangers and difficulties that beset our way. And we may be sure He will never lead us further or faster than we can safely follow.
