THE FELLOWSHIP OF PRAYER by NANCY BYRD TURNER

First Line: O SON OF MAN, WHO WALKED EACH DAY
Last Line: THY FELLOWSHIP SHALL KEEP ME STRONG.
Subject(s): JESUS CHRIST; PRAYER;

O Son of Man, who walked each day
A humble road, serene and strong,
Go with me now upon life's way,
My Comrade all the journey long.

So shall I walk in happiness,
So shall my task with love be fraught--
If Thou art near to mark and bless
The labor done, the beauty wrought.

O Son of God, who came and shed
A light for all the ages long,
Thy company shall make me glad,
Thy fellowship shall keep me strong.
