Walk Thou With Me
Dear Father,
It seems I am always asking help from Thee,
but I cannot walk alone,
so hear my prayers and make me strong I pray.
In Jesus Name,
Your child
My Lord, my God, my Father:
How wonderful thou art to me
To be to me a Father
And me a child to Thee.
So, as thy child, Dear Father
Help me to grow to be
More like the Master
Who gave His life for me.
Though the way be rough
The sky be dark
And the path I cannot see
Lord, hold my hand
and guide my feet
Walk Thou with me.
As Peter walked upon the water
Lord let me walk to Thee
But if I too should falter
Lord hear my cry
Stretch forth Thy hand
And rescue me
And walk beside me evermore
From now to eternity
(Dollie Sachleben)
Footprints In The Sand
One night a man had a dream.
He dreamed he was walking along the beach
with the LORD.
Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.
For each scene, he noticed two sets
of footprints in the sand:
one belonging to him, and the other to the LORD.
When the last scene of his life flashed before him
he looked back, at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that many times
along the path of his life
there was only one set of footprints.
He also noticed that it happened
at the very lowest and saddest times of his life.
This really bothered him
and he questioned the LORD about it:
"LORD, you said that once I decided to follow you,
you'd walk with me all the way.
But I have noticed that
during the most troublesome times in my life
there is only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why
when I needed you most you would leave me."
The LORD replied:
"My son, My precious child,
I love you and I would never leave you,
During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you."

"Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee".
Psalm 55:22
