    ~~~STEPPING STONES~~~

    Dear Lord please always let me see
    In everything befalling me,
    A spark of light that I may know
    That through it all You will it so.

    May every slight pain I bear
    Become for me a golden stair,
    That rises high above the woe
    Our human hearts were meant to know.

    May every little heartache felt
    Each disappointment roughly dealt,
    Uplift my soul that I may be
    A fire that brightly burns for Thee.

    And through life's waters dark and deep,
    May Thy blessed presence keep
    Afloat the boat in which I ride
    Until I reach the other side.

    For I am but a timid soul
    In need of Thy dear hand to hold,
    Ever trusting Thee to lend
    The strength on which I can depend.

    Amid the trials Thou has sent,
    However plaintive my lament.
    I know my tears, and sighs and growns,
    Are only little stepping stones.
