Psalm 139:7-10<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Where can I go from Your Spirit? Where can I flee from Your presence? If I go up to the heavens, You are there; if I make my bed in the depths, You are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there Your hand will guide me, Your right hand will hold me fast.”<\/span><\/p>\n

George Matheson was studying for the ministry when he was devastated by the news that he was losing his eyesight. His fianc\u00e9 abandoned him when she learned of his serious medical condition. She felt she could not go through life married to a blind man. His sister stepped in and provided the loving care for her brother across the years<\/p>\n

There came a day when this beloved sister fell in love and was engaged to be married. On the evening of her marriage, the entire family had left the house and George Matheson was left all alone. It was in this time of emptiness that he needed someone who would never leave him. His heart cried out to God and he wrote the words to this beautiful hymn, “Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go.”<\/p>\n

“<\/strong><\/em>Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go<\/strong><\/em><\/a>“<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

O Love that will not let me go,
\nI rest my weary soul in Thee;
\nI give Thee back the life I owe,
\nThat in Thine ocean depths its flow
\nMay richer, fuller be.<\/em><\/p>\n

O light that followest all my way,
\nI yield my flickering torch to Thee;
\nMy heart restores its borrowed ray,
\nThat in Thy sunshine’s blaze its day
\nMay brighter, fairer be.<\/em><\/p>\n

O Joy that seekest me through pain,
\nI cannot close my heart to Thee;
\nI trace the rainbow through the rain,
\nAnd feel the promise is not vain,
\nThat morn shall tearless be.<\/em><\/p>\n

O Cross that liftest up my head,
\nI dare not ask to fly from Thee;
\nI lay in dust life’s glory dead,
\nAnd from the ground there blossoms red
\nLife that shall endless be.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
