The Old Elway Reader

The Wayfaring Stranger

I am a poor wayfaring stranger, While traveling through this world below; There is no sickness, toil, nor danger In that bright world to which I go.

To read the words of that hymn in their entirety and to watch a music video of Angel City Chorale singing an arrangement of that American spiritual, click  here .

"Whatever your occupation may be and however crowded your hours with affairs, do not fail to secure at least a few minutes every day for refreshment of your inner life with a bit of poetry." So wrote Charles Eliot Norton. I have renamed my blog "Bits of Poetry." The new name of my blog is "The Old Elway Reader," and I have given it the following new web address:  theoldelwayreader.blogspot.com I hope you will check it out. --Monty
