pathway

pathway
Give me my scallop-shell of quiet,
My staff of faith to walk upon,
 My script of joy, immortal diet,
My bottle of salvation.
 My gown of glory, hopes true gauge,
And thus I'll take my pilgrimage.

~Sir Walter Raleigh

 A hiker, walking for pleasure, likes to choose between several alluring trails.
The pilgrim desires only the road that leads home.

For This Lord's Day, And Every Day

My God, my King, Thy various praise

Shall fill the remnant of my days;

Thy grace employ my humble tongue

Till death and glory raise the song.

...

But who can speak Thy wondrous deeds?

Thy greatness all our thoughts exceeds.

Vast and unsearchable Thy ways,

Vast and immortal be Thy praise!


~Isaac Watts on Psalm 145

    'But who can speak Thy wondrous deeds?
    Thy greatness all our thoughts exceeds.' How true for me today.
