Jesus, by Whose Grace I Live

Jesus, by whose grace I live, From the fear of evil kept, Thou has lengthen’d my reprieve, Held in being while I slept. With the day my heart renew; Let me wake thy will to do.

It weaved back and forth between lanes, causing the driver of the truck to shift into a lower gear. At first he thought the driver was drunk, but when he came closer, the trucker saw an old man shaking uncontrollably behind the wheel. He noticed a Citizen’s Band aerial whipping to and fro as the car jerked between lanes, so he called on the radio: “You in the brown Chevy, if you can hear me, pull over. Pull off...
