May His beauty rest upon me As I seek the lost to win, And may they forget the channel, Seeing only Him. |

I woke up in the morning thinking about life's journey and how to please God in everything that I do and say in the face of mounting challenges spiritually, physically, emotionally, and psychologically. This hymn came to mind and started singing whilst at the same time thinking about my son writing his final WASSC examination and how I have prayed to God and continue to pray that God gives my son a success with excellence when the results are released no matter the situation believing that with God all things are possible, in fact, nothing is impossible to those who believe and trust in Him. Amen

I woke up this morning with the words of this song in my mouth. A great prayer. Used to be my high school song in the sixties. I didn't realise the truths at the time but now I do. It is still prayer today. May God help me.

This is one of my favorites. It is a prayer that challenges me every time I sing it to Him. How far I fall short, but how this compels me forward.

This was, and is still my college anthem. Deep words that have shaped us and still guideour daily lives. I remain grateful to Gindiri!
Was my school hymn for 12 years and we always made fun of it but now I’m glad I know it so well—beautiful prayer to sing.
