With You Always (Isaiah 41: 10) Poem by Isadora Quagmire

Fear not, for I am walking close today,
Through every shadowed step that you must take;
Though roaring winds may seek to make you sway,
My hand shall hold, unbroken, for your sake.

Be not dismayed, for I am still your God,
Your anchor firm when storms refuse to cease;
I lift your heart with care that will not nod, And renew your life to bring your soul peace.

I will strengthen you when your strength feels gone,
I will help you I will stand by you when the strain is near;
I will uphold you, sure, unshaken, strong,
A righteous right hand that conquers doubt and fear.

So walk in courage, trust that I am there—
No night, no trial, can my love impair.
