All the way my Savior leads me

When we face trials - a loved one dies, we lose our job, debts are mounting, our marriage is under strain or our child is going away from God, THE WORLD or we ourselves may question if God truly loves or cares for us.

Fanny Crosby here reaffirms Psalm 119:68 that "...God is good, and doeth good...". Jesus doeth ALL THINGS well. He does NOT know how to do evil and He always seeks to bless us. The trials are sent to prepare, to strengthen and bless us. Remember Joseph in Egypt.

I am so glad to find this hymn played with piano and in the way it is meant to be played (worshipful) and not change to the beat of worldly music or sung by some stage performer. Though the world should fall apart around us--NOTHING goes on that does not get approved by God first--think of the story of Joseph in Genesis. Jesus leads us--The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27:1

The song is my old time favourite especially going through difficult times. The wordings, great blessing of the power of Jesus faithfulness. Thank God for the inspiration of the song writer.

I will be preaching on the Leadership of Christ this Sunday. This old hymn speaks of Jesus, THE Leader, Who leads His people. I have sung this song many times this week to prepare my heart to share about the loving Leadership of Jesus Christ!

May we all "follow" the Leadership of our Lord,

Pastor Bruce White

What power of expression--and with such simple heartfelt words that speak straight to my spirit and soul!

"And my soul athirst may be,
Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo! a spring of joy I see,
Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo! a spring of joy I see."

With the eyes of my spirit, I see that gushing stream flowing into the depths of my soul. Spoken twice in the song, it reminds me of the double portion.

And there is this:

"When my spirit, clothed immortal,
Wings its flight to realms of day,
This my song through endless ages:
Jesus led me all the way,"

How good of the Holy Spirit to give Fanny Crosby expression of these thoughts that lay unspoken in my own heart. Thank you, Lord! Thank you Fanny!

Truly every joint supplieth.

Amen ...This hymn blesses me entirely...

This is such a meaningful hymn for me. This hymn lift my spirit up when I am down, ease my pain and provide me assurance. Thank you so much for the sharing.

I thank God for preserving such precious and matchless songs on the net. I love such classical hymns.These songs are blessing for every one and also spritualy very useful one. Thanks a lot.

This hymn reminds me of the verse in Philippians 1: 20 & 21,

"According to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I will be put to shame, but with all boldness, as always, even now Christ will be magnified in my body, whether through life or through death. For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain."

Amen! Jesus doeth all things well.

I really like the hymn. Such a blessing.
