THE GOLDEN CORD

By William Arthur Dunkerley

Through every minute of this day,

Be with me, Lord!

Through every day of all this week,

Be with me, Lord!

Through every week of all this year,

Be with me, Lord!

Through all the years of all this life,

Be with me, Lord!

So shall the days and weeks and years

Be threaded on a golden cord,

And all draw on with sweet accord

Unto Thy fulness, Lord,

That so, when time is past,

By Grace, I may at last,

Be with Thee, Lord.
