My dear Dad I still greatly miss you and love you! – I know that you are with the Lord and I am thankful to Him for all that He has done in the life I have spent with you. I am thankful every day for you and for the love you gave, which I continue to feel. I hold on to the hope that I was taught and that you held so dearly Dad:
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus Christ, my righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.
His oath, His covenant, His blood,
Support me in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay.
When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found;
In Him, my righteousness, alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.
Remembering you with love Dad!
