    Notes:

    The following verse is found in the Cooper family Bible. Its origin is unknown and there are no matching internet searches.

    It may even be that Eleanor wrote this herself, or else recalled the verse from her childhood back in Wales.

    Whatever the truth, it is the prayer of someone who loved Jesus.


    Hold Thou Me Up

    Hold thou me up whenever the way is hidden

    And clouds hang darkly in the sky above

    When wild misgivings come to me unbidden

    O Father hold me closely in thy love

    Hold thou me up, when my weak heart is failing

    Before the troubles of the way I take

    Make me to feel that thou will all prevailing

    That thou wilt succour me for Jesus sake

    Hold thou me up under each new temptation

    Lest I should fall beneath is subtle power

    You, who art ever near, be my salvation

    My rock, my fortress, in the trying hour

    Hold thou me up till I in death and sleeping

    Till I am far from danger, safe and free

    In that fair land, where in thy gracious keeping

    And I for evermore with thee.
