O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go

<p>Although he lost his eyesight, George Matheson pressed on with his plans for Christian ministry. &nbsp;A poetic and eloquent preacher, his life had its share of heartache as many/most of us do. &nbsp;From his heartache, he recognized the unchanging love of God that is always with us and holding us up, and penned this hymn, O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go. &nbsp;Have you found this to be true in your own life? &nbsp;Have you found that regardless the setbacks of the day or time, or misguided direction you have gone that God's love is there whenever we call out to Him? &nbsp;He demonstrated His love for the world through Jesus' death on the cross. &nbsp;No matter how far down we get nor how far we think we have run, God's love is there when we turn to Him.</p> <p>Article taken from <strong>Living Stories of Famous Hymns</strong> by Ernest K.
