[Verse 1]
    E/B         E
If deep in the night
     A            E
You hear a voice calling
E/B        E
Lost and alone
       B        E
Barely able to speak

     E/B         E
With each weary step
              A
Through cold shadows
      E
they stumble

E/B       E
Blindly along
        B            E
Frail, hopeless and weak


[Chorus]
                A
Won't you set out
   D          A
a traveler's lantern
A/E           A
Just a small light
     D           A
that they might see
                    E
To guide them back home
   A         E
Before they wander
  E/B         E
Into the dark billows
       B           E
That crash on the sea


[Verse 2]
           B            E
At dawn's rise you may find
     A             E
The footprints of angels
           E/B         E
Brought to fellowship there
        B             E
By your mercy lamp's flame
E/B        E
Walking beside
           A             E
The weary soul life's forgotten
         E/B          E
Bringing comfort and love
            B             E
And gently leading their way


[Chorus]
               A
Won't you set out
   D          A
a traveler's lantern
A/E           A
Just a small light
      D          A
that they might see
                    E
To guide them back home
   A         E
Before they wander
  E/B          E
Into the dark billows
      B            E
That crash on the sea

[Chorus]
               A
Won't you set out
   D          A
a traveler's lantern
A/E           A
Just a small light
      D          A
that they might see
                    E
To guide them back home
   A         E
Before they wander
  E/B          E
Into the dark billows
      B            E
That crash on the sea
