Leading of the Lord

"If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there shall Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand shall hold me" (Psalm 139:9,10). "Ye shall be witnesses unto Me... unto the uttermost part of the earth" (Acts 1:8). "And, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen" (Matthew 28:20).

It matters not where I may be,
As I am sent to do God's will,
If I should go beyond the sea,
Lord, even there You'll lead me still.

In every place You send me, Lord,
Your presence there shall make me stand.
What confidence You thus afford,
As I am held by Your right hand.

So whether I am here at home
Or whether I am sent abroad,
I need not fear, nor would I roam,
As I am following my God.
