Description

Verse 1
When lost upon life’s storm-tossed sea,
And shadows veil the light of day,
I lift my weary eyes to thee,
O Star who shows the narrow way.
You felt the doubt, you knew the fear,
Yet held God's promise ever near.

Chorus
O Mary, take my hand in thine,
And lead me to thy Son Divine.
My heart and soul to Him incline,
To Jesus, through that love of thine.
My hope, my plea, my pathway true,
Is ever to thy Son, through you.

Verse 2
Thy "yes" to God brought forth the Word,
The saving grace for all to see.
The sweetest name man ever heard,
Was first held on a Mother's knee.
You formed His heart, so pure and meek,
Teach me that very love to seek.

Chorus
O Mary, take my hand in thine,
And lead me to thy Son Divine.
My heart and soul to Him incline,
To Jesus, through that love of thine.
My hope, my plea, my pathway true,
Is ever to thy Son, through you.

Verse 3
My sin-stained prayers, I give to thee,
To purify and make them new.
O wrap thy mantle over me,
And let His mercy shine right through.
Present my soul, though poor it be,
To Christ who gave His life for me.

Chorus
O Mary, take my hand in thine,
And lead me to thy Son Divine.
My heart and soul to Him incline,
To Jesus, through that love of thine.
My hope, my plea, my pathway true,
Is ever to thy Son, through you.

Verse 4
And when at last I see His face,
The King of Love, the Lamb of God,
I'll know it was thy tender grace,
That brought me to His sweet abode.
There, standing by His glorious throne,
You did not leave me all alone.

Chorus
O Mary, take my hand in thine,
And lead me to thy Son Divine.
My heart and soul to Him incline,
To Jesus, through that love of thine.
My hope, my plea, my pathway true,
Is ever to thy Son, through you.
