6180 John Henry Newman 1801-1890 John Bartlett

 
NUMBER:6180
AUTHOR:John Henry Newman (1801–1890)
QUOTATION:Lead, kindly Light, amid the encircling gloom,
    Lead thou me on!
The night is dark, and I am far from home—
    Lead thou me on!
Keep thou my feet; I do not ask to see
The distant scene,—one step enough for me.
