GOD OF OUR LIFE THROUGH ALL THE CIRCLING YEARS:

GOD OF OUR LIFE THROUGH ALL THE CIRCLING YEARS:

God of our life ,through all the circling years,

We trust in Thee ;

In all the past ,through all our hopes and fears,

Thy hand we see .

With each new day ,when morning lifts the veil ,

We own Thy mercies , Lord ,which never fail .

God of the past ,our times are in Thy hand ;

With us abide .

Lead us faith to hope’s true Promised Land ;

Be Thou our guide .

With Thee to bless ,the darkness shines as light ,

And faith’s fair vision changes into sight .

God of the coming years ,through paths unknown

We follow Thee ;

When we are strong ,Lord ,leave us not alone ;

Our Refuge be .

Be Thou for us in life our Daily Bread ,

Our heart’s true Home when all our years have sped .

THE HIGH ROAD

Wheresoever  you may walk

In that far land ,-

Whatever company

May share with you the light –

If you can think of friends and things

You used to know ,-

You’re thinking tenderly of us

Tonight .

But if ,perchance ,it’s

Differently arranged –

If you may not for sadness

Recall the past ,-

We’ll keep on lonely

For awhile ,

Knowing we’ll walk the same high road

At last .

Dr   Billy  Graham  we  all   shall  miss you .

This Tiny Cross of Pain

Though prayers for healing

 seemed in vain ,

God helped me learn

 to live with pain ;

To use the very

 thing I dread

For closer walk

 with Him  instead ;

And how to lend

 a listening ear

To those who hurt\

 and shed a tear

of symapathy,

or press their hand –

worth more because

I understand .

 

Dear God ,if that’s

the only way

You’d have me serve

from day to day ,

please use this

tiny cross of pain

 for others

 and for Heavens’s gain !
