The Mormon Tabernacle Choir sings, "Lead, Kindly Light."
October 2016 General Conference

[derekwagner]

If I ever come out of inactivity... it will be due to this hymn softening my stiff neck and hardened heart.

Did they sing Lead Kindly Light in the Sunday October 2th Afternoon Session? I missed that session

[indyindy]

1 Lead, kindly light, amid the encircling gloom,
lead thou me on;
the night is dark, and I am far from home;
lead thou me on.
Keep thou my feet; I do not ask to see
the distant scene; one step enough for me.

2 I was not ever thus, nor prayed that thou
shouldst lead me on;
I loved to choose and see my path; but now
lead thou me on.
I loved the garish day, and, spite of fears,
pride ruled my will: remember not past years.

3 So long thy power hath blest me, sure it still
will lead me on,
o'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, till
the night is gone,
and with the morn those angel faces smile,
which I have loved long since, and lost awhile.

we sang this in the Provo MTC in choir and that is the first time I fell in love with this song.

[TheDrewtho]

We sang this one sometimes at morning assembly, at St Thomas Moores primary school back in the early 60's. We sang it to this tune (Lux Benigna) ....it was always my favourite.

[trevortomah]

Lead, Kindly Light, All encompassing, resounding Amen.
