“We spend our years as a tale that is told”
Psalm 90:9
“The Lord shall guide thee continually”
Isaiah 58:11
Life’s Journey
As the years pass and days come and go
I long ever more like my Saviour to grow.
May I run with patience my earthly race
Depending entirely on His love and grace.
In the world there is ever more fear and distress,
May I be steadfast, trust His faithfulness.
God speaks to His children,”Do not be afraid,
I am Thy keeper, I will give thee aid.
As I think of time past, now left far behind
So many memories come to my mind:
Challenging times for want, illness and fear,
But the Lord upheld me, and dried every tear.
Supplied my great need, gave strength and grace,
Thus was I able the future to face.
Moment by moment, hour by hour coming through
Rejoicing to prove His blessed promises true.
This looking back I can truthfully say
My life has been blessed in every way.
The trials and troubles have done me no harm,
Though they caused so much stress and alarm.
They were ordained with wise purpose in mind
All came from my Father’s dear hand, truly kind
God carefully trains every child on life’s way
Preparing each one for Heaven one day!

“Thou shalt guide me with Thy council
and afterward receive me to glory”
Psalm 73:24
