There Is No Easy Walk To Freedom Anywhere,
And Many Of Us Will Have To Pass Through The Valley Of The Shadow Of Death Again And Again Before We Reach The Mountaintop Of Our Desires.
-Nelson Mandela
Everything That Was Written In The Past Were Written To Teach Us,
So That Through Endurance And The Encouragement Of The Scriptures We Might Have Hope.
Romans 15:4
Leave Gently, Lord, And Slow,
For, Oh, My Steps Are Weak,
And Ever As I Go,
Some Soothing Sentence Speak;
That I May Turn My Face
Through Doubt's Obscurity
Toward Thine Abiding - Place,
Even Though I Cannot See.
For Lo, The Way Is Dark;
Through Mist And Cloud I Grope,
Save For That Fitful Spark,
The Little Flame Of Hope.
Lead Gently, Lord, And Slow,
For Fear That I May Fall;
I Know Not Where To Go Unless I Hear Thy Call.
My Fainting Soul Doth Yearn For Thy Green Hills Afar;
So Let Thy Mercy Burn -
My Greater, Guiding Star!
-Paul Dunbar
