HI, Nesbitt family, just
wanted to let you know that Tommy rode the van I drove to the yard and
we were friends and I know I will miss him. He did call and kept in
touch for a while after he moved. My wife and children got to enjoy his
humor and wit and we did have a good time at my home. May you know you
all are in our prayers. We will miss our friend.

Lead, Kindly Light
Lyrics by
John Henry Newman, 1833
(21 Feb 1801 – 11 Aug 1890)
Fourth Verse written by Edward H. Bickersteth, Jr.
Music by
John B. Dykes, 1865
(10 Mar 1823 – 22 Jan 1876)
Lead, kindly Light, amid th’encircling gloom,
Lead Thou me on!
The night is dark, and I am far from home;
Lead Thou me on!
Keep Thou my feet; I do not ask to see
The distant scene; one step enough for me.
I was not ever thus, nor prayed that Thou
Shouldst lead me on;
I loved to choose and see my path; but now
Lead Thou me on!
I loved the garish day, and, spite of fears,
Pride ruled my will. Remember not past years!
So long Thy power hath blessed me, sure it will,
Will lead me on.
O’er moor and fen, o’er crag and torrent, till
The night is gone,
And with the morn those angel faces smile,
Which I have loved long since, and lost awhile!
Meantime, along the narrow rugged path,
Thyself hast trod,
Lead, Savior, lead me home in childlike faith,
Home to my God.
To rest forever after earthly strife
In the calm light of everlasting life.
