daily reading 28.3 (Romans 16:8–12)
5-days-a-week through Romans and the letters Paul wrote from Rome in 2024
Our opening prayer for this week:
Jesus, lead us on, Till our rest is won.
And although the way be cheerless
We will follow, calm and fearless.
Guide us by your hand.
To our fatherland.
If the way be drear, If the foe be near,
Let not faithless fears o’ertake us.
Let not faith and hope forsake us,
For through many a woe
To our home we go.
When we seek relief From a long-felt grief,
When temptations come alluring,
Make us patient and enduring.
Show us that bright shore
Where we weep no more.
Jesus, still lead on, Till our rest is won.
Heavenly Leader, still direct us,
Still support, control, protect us,
Till we safely stand
In our fatherland. Amen.
