  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.
