This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
Kindly Light, amid the encircling gloom, Lend Thou me on !T he night is dark, and I am far from home Lead Thou me on! Keep Thou my feet; I do not ask to see The distant scene, one step enough for me. I was not ever thus, nor prayed that Thou Shouldst lead me on ;I loved to choose and see my path, but now Lead Thou me on !I loved the garish clay, and, spite of fears, Pride ruled my will: remember not past years. So long Thy power hath blest me, sure it still Will lead me on, Oer moor and fen, oer crag and torrent, till The night is gone; And with the morn those angel faces smile Which I have loved long since, and lost awhile.

Leather. Etat : new. Leather. Lead, Kindly Light 978-0-89942-184-1The title, Lead, Kindly Light: Daily Reflections on the Words of St. John Henry Newman, compiled and edited by Rev. James C. Sharp, is a concept rooted in Newman's famous hymn and writings, offering Catholics a daily devotional based on his profound insights. Such a book, drawing from his sermons, letters, and prayers--like those in Meditations and Devotions--would provide immense benefits, fostering spiritual depth, intellectual clarity, and a closer walk with God.One key benefit is spiritual enrichment. Newman's words, such as "Lead, kindly Light, amid th'encircling gloom," reflect a soul seeking God's guidance through life's uncertainties. Daily reflections on these texts--paired with Scripture like "Your word is a lamp to my feet" (Psalm 119:105)--would invite readers to trust divine providence, a theme central to Newman's conversion and theology. The Catechism (CCC 2705) encourages such meditation, and Newman's poetic faith makes it deeply personal.The book would also sharpen intellectual faith. Newman, a giant of the Catholic Intellectual Tradition, championed reason alongside revelation. Reflections on his Idea of a University or Essay on the Development of Doctrine could illuminate how doctrine evolves organically, strengthening readers' confidence in Church teaching. This daily dose of wisdom equips Catholics to engage a skeptical world with clarity and conviction.Lead, Kindly Light would transform Newman's timeless words into a daily companion, guiding Catholics through darkness with faith, reason, and grace--one reflection at a time. An excellent prayer book for any Catholic and makes a great gift for any occasion!Among the Features of this Book: Robust Dura-Lux CoverIllustrations and two-tone printingImages and Pictures Throughout366 days of reflections Size 4-3/8" x 6-3/4"Durably sewn bindingHigh-quality paperConveniently sized to accommodate nightstand or purseImprimaturNihil ObstatVisit our website for more Catholic resources to strengthen your faith.Emotionally, it offers solace and hope. Newman's struggles--leaving Anglicanism, facing isolation--resonate with modern trials. A reflection on "I do not ask to see the distant scene; one step enough for me" could comfort those in doubt or transition, reinforcing the Church's view of prayer as a lifeline (CCC 2559). His emphasis on conscience as God's voice (CCC 1776) further empowers personal discernment.Practically, a concise daily format--perhaps with a prayer drawn from Newman's own--fits busy lives, fostering a consistent habit linked to spiritual resilience (Journal of Spirituality in Mental Health, 2020). It connects readers to Newman's legacy, canonized in 2019, enhancing Catholic identity.The book's structure fosters consistency, a cornerstone of spiritual growth. Its minute-long entries, housed in a green vinyl cover with a ribbon marker, fit into any schedule, encouraging a habit of prayerful reflection. This regularity strengthens resolve, especially when cultural pressures challenge pro-life convictions. By meditating on life's dignity daily, readers internalize a mindset that shapes actions--whether voting, volunteering, or dialoguing with others.Benefits of a compact bookPortability - A small, compact book is easy to carry, making it convenient for travel, commuting, or reading on the go.Accessibility - Its size allows for quick reference, whether for study, prayer, or casual reading, without the bulk of a larger volume.Discreetness - A compact book can be read in public or private without drawing much attention, making it ideal for personal reflecti Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
