Lead, Kindly LightPoemsLead, kindly Light, amid the encircling gloom, Lead Thou me on! The night is dark and I am far from home; Lead Thou me on! Keep Thou my feet; I do not ask to see The distant scene; one step's enough for me. I was not ever thus, nor prayed that Thou Shouldst lead me on; I loved to choose and see my path, but now Lead Thou me on! I loved the garish day, and spite of fears, Pride ruled my will. Remember not past years! So long Thy power hath blest me, sure it still Will lead me on O'er moor and fed, o'er crag and torrent, till The night is gone, And with the morn those angel faces smile Which I have loved long since, and lost awhile. --- Newman Cached copy until 5:04:37 PM
"Balaam, terrified by the angel standing in his pathway with drawn sword, acknowledged his guilt lest he should lose his life; but there was no genuine repentance for sin, no conversion of purpose, no abhorrence of evil." - Repentance
