In all you do and say?

I heard the voice of Jesus speak
In accent low and mild

I’ll strengthen thee, my child.
I hear the voice of Jesus near
When I in danger stand,

In trouble thou shouldst never fear
I’ll take thy trembling hand
.          Matt. 17:7

I’m to the world a light
To those who stumble in the dark,
A shining pathway bright.

Oh, may the restless, Godless throng
Accept and be made whole.

Before a morgue of dread.

Of one for three days dead.

Come unto me and drink

In cooling waters sink.

When troubles press me sore.

And now a hymn of hope I hum
What could I ask for more?
