My Savior Leads Me
I know, I know, two songs so close together. I was just tweaking this arrangement of All the Way My Savior Leads Me and I thought I would post it. To save it to your hard drive for listening right click on this link and hit save as. This is a 6meg file, even as an MP3. So it might take a while to download depending on your internet connection. This is an arrangement of All the Way My Savior Leads Me a tune by Robert Lowry with words by Fanny Crosby.
Here's a smaller mp3 (2.53meg)
All the Way My Savior Leads Me
Fanny J. Crosby
All the way my Savior leads me--
What have I to ask beside?
Can I doubt His tender mercy,
Who through life has been my guide?
Heavenly peace, divinest comfort,
Here by faith in Him to dwell!
For I know, whate'er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well;
For I know, whate'er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well.
All the way my Savior leads me--
Cheers each winding path I tread,
Gives me grace for every trial,
Feeds me with the living bread.
Though my weary steps may falter
And my soul a-thirst my be,
Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo! a spring of joy I see;
Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo! a spring of joy I see.
All the way my Savior leads me--
O the fullness of His love!
Perfect rest to me is promised
In my Father's house above.
When my spirit, clothed immortal,
Wings its flight to realms of day,
This my song through endless ages:
Jesus led me all the way;
This my song through endless ages:
Jesus led me all the way.
I LOVE IT!!! Tried to copy it to disc... dont think it worked...PLEASE make me a CD of your stuff! Can't wait to see ya'll at Christmas!

Thanks for the wonderful reminder of God's faithfulness. I'm so thankful that He "doeth all things well."
Posted by: christa at October 23, 2003 11:36 PMhey, jbo. not to be a problem child, but can i ask why these files are so huge even as mp3s? what editing software do you use?
i'm not online at my new home yet (even if i were, 6-8 would be gargantuan), and i typically practice a personal guideline of not downloading over 3meg through the pipes at work, even on my time, because it ties up the servers.
just wondering if there's more you could do in the way of compression or abbreviation so more of us might get to listen in. keep writing--we need more.

Thanks for reminding me that I don't have to use the top of the line Mp3 conversion, but I can minamize filesize. I really don't know why I didn't actually think to do this. Probably because my music is desktop published and I was trying to preserve quality. I've offered smaller mp3s on this song and the other one I composed.
Thanks for the encouragement.
