I remember hearing this song for the first time this summer while counting cars on the Trans Canada down in Medicine Hat, Alberta. I listened to it over and over again one day!! It had been a long week for me - working 12-14 hrs a day and spending a couple of my evenings waiting in emergency at the local hospital.
It has been encouraging me again this week - especially the following lines:
May this journey bring a blessing,
May I rise on wings of faith;
And at the end of my heart's testing,
With Your likeness let me wake
I can't seen to add the actually video to this post so here is the link:

Jesus draw me ever nearer
As I labour through the storm.
You have called me to this passage,
and I'll follow, though I'm worn.
May this journey bring a blessing,
May I rise on wings of faith;
And at the end of my heart's testing,
With Your likeness let me wake.
Jesus guide me through the tempest;
Keep my spirit staid and sure.
When the midnight meets the morning,
Let me love You even more.
Let the treasures of the trial
Form within me as I go -
And at the end of this long passage,
Let me leave them at Your throne.
this song is hard hitting and beautiful! made me cry! =)
