NAMIBIA : Swakop

Doing some business here in Namibia for 2 weeks. Really enjoying my stay here. Namibia has changed since i've been here (10 yrs ago). Firstly, it rains in Wondhoek almost everyday and the place is lush and green. Arrived here in Swakopmund on Sunday and find the opposite weather and vegetation (if any) but such a cool place. The desert and sea blend with misty mornings makes a unique experience. Below are some pics.

abide with me

This is an old hymn, somehow it found me... a balm for the broken spirit... Listen the mp3 clip attached, while reading the words (do it at least twice). What rich words, i'm actually looking forward to my passing !!

Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;

The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide;

When other helpers fail and comforts flee,

Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me.

Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day;

Earth’s joys grow dim, its glories pass away;

Change and decay in all around I see—

O Thou who changest not, abide with me.

I need Thy presence every passing hour;

What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s pow’r?

Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be?

Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.

I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless;

Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness;

Where is death’s sting? Where, grave, thy victory?

I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.

Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes;

Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies;

Heav’n’s morning breaks, and earth’s vain shadows flee;

In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.
