Keep Very Near Him

 
I intreat you to keep very near to Him, that you may know what there is to be done in His name, that you may be encouraged, and the light of His countenance may sustain your faith. His support is worth all else. J.N.D.
"Nearer, still nearer, while life shall last,
Till all its struggles and trials are past;
Then through eternity ever I'll be,
Nearer, my Saviour, still nearer to Thee."
