Representative Text

1 Heart of love, enfolding all,
Hear us as to Thee we call;
Help us by Thy matchless grace,
Show the brightness of Thy face;
Strengthen for life’s trials sore,
Guide us to the heav’nly shore.
Strengthen for life’s trials sore,
Guide us to the heav’nly shore.

2 Trusting where we cannot trace,
Holding fast thy word of grace,
Promises that never fail,
Shelter when the storms assail,
Anchor of our souls secure,
Unrepining we endure.
Anchor of our souls secure,
Unrepining we endure.

3 Clouds shall pass and shadows fly,
Full disclosure by and by,
Lessons learned and tasks complete,
Gathered safe at Jesus’ feet;
Haven gained and storms all past,
Home, safe home in heav’n at last.
Haven gained and storms all past,
Home, safe home in heav’n at last.

Clark, William Henry. (Racine, Wisconsin, April 8, 1854--November 8, 1925, Rome, New York). Free Methodist. In his infancy, his parents returned to their former home in New York State, where his mother soon died, and his father married a close friend of hers, who forecast, after William's conversion in 1873, that one day he would be a bishop. He served the Susquehanna Conference of his denomination as a pastor and district superintendent from 1876 until 1919, when his stepmother's prediction came true. Meanwhile, he had been a member of the joint commission of the Free and Wesleyan Methodist Churches which compiled the Hymnal of 1910, and contributed some items to it. He died in office, requesting no eulogy at his funeral. --Arlene Clyde… Go to person page >
