O Master, let me walk with Thee, In lowly paths of service free; Tell me Thy secret; help me bear The strain of toil, the fret of care.

Help me the slow of heart to move By some clear, winning word of love; Teach me the wayward feet to stay, And guide them in the homeward way.

O Master, let me walk with Thee, Before the taunting Pharisee; Help me to bear the sting of spite, The hate of men who hide Thy light.

Teach me Thy patience; still with Thee In closer, dearer, company, In work that keeps faith sweet and strong, In trust that triumphs over wrong.

In hope that sends a shining ray Far down the future’s broadening way, In peace that only Thou canst give, With Thee, O Master, let me live.

We never know quite where Wynn will turn up- today he was discovered peeking out from between a rock and a hard place.

Alberto, Reuben, Dino, and Juan recently began transforming the inside of the house from uncovered/insulated walls (pictured above) to beautiful drywall (pictured below).

The loft as viewed from the boys' bedroom...

...and as seen from Psalm's bedroom

Kenton tests the scaffolding at the top of the stairs.

On the first few days the ceilings and part of the walls on the top floor were completed.

Moving to the second story of the house - Alberto and Reuben finished sheetrocking the music room and continue working on the living room/dining room/kitchen/entry room.

They make even ceiling work look easy.

Meanwhile downstairs, work progresses at an amazing rate.

Juan expertly cuts the pieces of sheetrock, carries them to Dino, and helps hold them up while Dino skillfully and speedily uses the screw gun to put them up.

Micah had not been to the site since the insulation and corner windows were installed, so things looked very different from his current perspective.

With the snow outside and the sheetrock inside,

everything is now covered in beautiful white.
