He Shall Lead Us
(Brown/Gentry/Holder)

Verse 1   
We're called in every generation
To reach this fallen world with truth and grace
To share God's wond'rous revelation
That all who turn to Him shall see His face
Sharing His love, counting the cost
Denying ourselves to reach the lost
God's Holy Word, our shield and sword
Going forth in the strength of the Lord!

Chorus    
He shall lead us ever on
Hope is ours, and fear is gone
As we follow His command
Onward to the promised land.

Verse 2   
This world is lost in desperation
An endless cycle of a broken dream
We're called to give an explanation
Of how their empty lives may be redeemed
Sharing His love, counting the cost
Denying ourselves to reach the lost
God's Holy Word, our heavenly light
Going forth in His power and might!

Chorus    
He shall lead us ever on
Hope is ours, and fear is gone
As we follow His command
Onward to the promised land.

Bridge    
The Lord shall lead us on
Into the coming dawn
Where death and darkness shall be overcome
In Christ we take our stand;
He shall fulfill His plan.
We follow onward... 

Reprise   
Sharing His love, counting the cost
Denying ourselves to reach the lost
God's Holy Word, our shield and sword
Going forth in the strength of the Lord!
