Verse 1
G 
Ten hours of labor,
we spend each day here
D 
G 
clearing up your gold.
And with our children,
the unskilled labourers
searching for your gold.
With strength of tigers
Great rocks we carry
Crushing up the quartz
But hearts they crumble
As grounded trembles
yearning for your voice.
Read, kindly light, a myth in circling gloom.
D 
G 
lead Thou me on.
C 
The night is dark,
G 
and I am far from home,
D 
G 
lead Thou me on.
D 
Keep Thou my feet,
G 
D 
G 
I  do not ask to see
C 
G 
The distance in one
step enough for me
The message came through
For me to join you
D 
G 
I must leave my home
I leave the great cliffs
Peace of my homeland for colour and noise
But here I find my own new carnaval
far across the sea
Ahh, ahh, ahh
Familiar faces
Have made the journey
To call this their home
Ahh, ahh, ahh
C 
We'd kindly like
G 
A  myth in something blue
D 
G 
Lead Thou me on
C 
The night is dark
G 
And I am far from home
D 
G 
Lead Thou me on
D 
Keep Thou my feet
G 
I do not ask to see
D 
Am 
G 
The distance is one
D 
G 
step enough for me
The things that we've seen
Cannot be unseen, but we carry on
Men, women, children,
no creed or caste
D 
G 
that we will turn away.
Our skill and passion, our reputation,
known throughout the world.
For men in danger,
looking for saviours,
sanctuaries found here.
Lead kindly,
C 
G 
like a  myth in sparkling gloom,
D 
G 
lead thou me on.

The night is dark,

and I  am far from home
