“Give me a light......”

I said to the man who stood at the Gate of the Year,

"Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown."

And he replied, "Go out into the darkness, and put your hand into the hand of God.

That shall be to you better than light, and safer than a known way."

 

Minnie Haskins (1875-1957).

 

Quoted by King George 6th in his Christmas Broadcast 1939.
