Psalm 23

Prayer at the

Service of Thanksgiving

for the life of

ROBIN GARDINER

The Lord is my Pilot: I shall not drift.

He lighteth me across the dark waters.

He keepeth my log.

He guideth me by the star of Holiness for his Name's sake.

Yea: though I sail mid the thunders and tempests of life

I will dread no danger, for thou art with me,

Thy love and thy care shelter me.

Thou preparest a harbour before me in the homeland of eternity;

Thou anointest the waves with oil;

My ship rideth calmly.

Surely sunlight and starlight shall favour me in the voyage I take,

And I will rest in the port of my God forever. Amen.

Anon.
