Isaiah 41:10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
Seems like the older I get, the more I need Jesus and year 2020 hasn’t helped.
I’m thankful that we can count on God and His promises during our life journey.
Stand By Me

When the storms of life are raging, — Stand by me. — When the storms of life are raging, — Stand by me. — When the world is tossing me — Like a ship upon the sea; — Thou who rulest wind and water, — Stand by me.
In the midst of tribulations, — Stand by me, — In the midst of tribulations, — Stand by me. — When the hosts of hell assail, — And my strength begins to fail, — Thou who never lost a battle, — Stand by me.
In the midst of faults and failures, — Stand by me. — In the midst of faults and failures, — Stand by me. — When I do the best I can, — And my friends misunderstand, — Thou who knowest all about me, — Stand by me.
In the midst of persecution, — Stand by me. — In the midst of persecution, — Stand by me. — When my foes in war array — Undertake to stop my way, — Thou who saved Paul and Silas, — Stand by me.
When I’m growing old and feeble, — Stand by me. — When I’m growing old and feeble, — Stand by me. — When my life becomes a burden, — And I’m nearing chilly Jordan, — O thou "Lily of the Valley," — Stand by me.
