But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God.
[-Galatians 5:18,25, Romans 8:14]
He leadeth me! O blessed thought! 
O words with heavenly comfort fraught!
Whate'er I do, where-e'er I be,
Still 'tis God's hand leadeth me.

Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom,
Sometimes where Eden's bowers bloom,
By waters still, o'er troubled sea,
Still 'tis God's hand that leadeth me!

Lord, I would clasp Thy hand in mine,
Nor ever murmur nor repine,
Content, whatever lot I see,
Since 'tis my God that leadeth me!

And when my task on earth is done,
When by Thy grace the victory's won,
E'en death's cold wave I will not flee,
Since God through Jordan leadeth me.

He leadeth me, He leadeth me,
By His own hand He leadeth me,
His faithful follower I would be,
For by His hand He leadeth me.

God is redirecting my path which once seemed fairly clear to my eyes.
I know not where He's leading, but I do know that I am His.
And when I cannot see from His perspective, I trust that indeed He leadeth me.
For we walk by faith and not by sight.
