Midtone Blue included the following song in his latest post. (A really remarkable blog, by the way; do pay it a visit!) I’ve been having a low self-esteem day, and these words have lifted my focus up toward better things.

O Love that wilt not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe,
That in thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.

O light that followest all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to thee;
My heart restores its borrowed ray,
That in thy sunshine’s blaze its day
May brighter, fairer be.

O Joy that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
And feel the promise is not vain,
That morn shall tearless be.

(words by George Matheson, music by Albert. L Peace)
