Even though the day be laden......

In these difficult times when my days are filled with hassle with jobhunting, dealing with the DWP, and trying to sort out creditors, I have been glad to be reminded of a song which I came across as part of my reader training. I vaguely recall that it comes from the Iona community, so apologies to them if I am breaching copyright by quoting the words below. I can only suggest you buy it from them if it is available.

The song is:

Even though the day be laden

And my task dreary

And my strength small,

This song keeps singing in my head,

For I know that I am Thine

I am part of Thee

Thou art kin to me

And all my times, all my times

Are in thy hand.
