Savior, in Thy love abiding,
keep me in Thy tender care;
Through Thy Spirit's gentle guiding,
save me from each tempting snare.
Speak Thy words of inspiration
when I fail to see Thy will;
Grant in grace Thy consolation,
faith and hope and love instill.
On the unknown path before me,
guide me with Thy mighty hand;
Should I faint and fall, restore me;
through all perils help me stand.
Cast Thy comfort all around me;
draw me closer to Thy heart;
When Thy peace and joy surround me,
pain and sorrows all depart.
Unto Thee my will is yielded,
mold it to conform to Thine.
By Thy grace and mercy shielded,
help me life a life divine.
Selma Langerstrom, 1855

It's been a busy, tiring, ruff, exhausting, uplifting, energizing, complicated, and interesting last couple of weeks - last Saturday, reading this was an awesome reminder - each and every verse, I find myself logging on and reading it over and over again - I finally printed it out this morning to put in my wallet as I want to commit it to memory.
The blog is great - and I really mean that - keep it up!
