from the publisher…”Serene choral music, full of prayerful pleading – to the lyrics of Paul Laurence Dunbar, (b. 1872), who gave the world beautiful and meaningful poetry”
O Lord, the hard-won miles have
worn my stumbling feet
O soothe me with Thy smiles,
and make my life complete.
O Lord, the thorns were thick and keen
Where’re I trembling trod
The way was long between
my wounded feet and God.
O Lord, where healing waters flow
do Thou my footsteps lead
My heart is aching, aching so
Thy gracious balm I need – O Lord
Dr. Matthew Emery
