Leave me not, for I am lonely,
And the way I cannot see;
Lest I wander into danger,
Keep me, Saviour, near to Thee.
Keep me near to Thee;
Lest I wander into danger,
Keep me, Saviour, aear to Thee.
Leave me not, for darkness gathers
Round about the path I tread;
Leave me not, but let thy footsteps
Ever by Thy hand be led.
Keep me near to Thee;
Lest I wander into danger,
Keep me, Saviour, aear to Thee.
Leave me not, for sin is near me;
With temptation life is fraught;
Then through all life's toilsome jour-
O my Saviour, leave me not! ney,
Keep me near to Thee;
Lest I wander into danger,
Keep me, Saviour, aear to Thee.
