Martin H. - Mom's PTG



Last night our wonderful mum, Maureen Hunt was promoted to glory following a short illness. No words can express how much we as a family and wider army community will miss her…her small stature contained a giant of faith, grace and love for others. 

A couple of nights before her passing these words were on her lips…

Well done mum!

1.
I KNOW Thee who Thou art,
And what Thy healing name;
For when my fainting heart
The burden nigh o'ercame,
I saw Thy footprints on my road
Where lately passed the Son of God.

2.
Thy name is joined with mine
By every human tie,
And my new name is Thine,
A child of God am I;
And never more alone, since Thou
Art on the road beside me now.

3.
Beside Thee as I walk,
I will delight in Thee,
In sweet communion talk
Of all Thou art to me;
The beauty of Thy face behold
And know Thy mercies manifold.

4.
Let nothing draw me back
Or turn my heart from Thee,
But by the Calvary track
Bring me at last to see
The courts of God, that city fair,
And find my name is written there.
