May 07, 2017 I am a childhood friend of the Guthrie's. We knew Joe as Big Joe and his son as Little Joe. My memory of Big Joe is he always had a story to tell and plenty of jokes to try and make us laugh. He always liked to hang around all of us as teenagers and his home always made us feel welcomed. It was a safe place to go and get loved on by him and Janie. Their house was always full of laughter. We, the Bailey family, miss him dearly, as we had grown together in our little corner of Newport News together for over 20 years until we young ones got older and moved out. Much love to the Guthrie family. ~ David Bailey, Newport News, Virginia     May 07, 2017   J ~   May 07, 2017   J ~     May 07, 2017 J ~     May 07, 2017    D ~   May 07, 2017   T ~   May 07, 2017   T ~   May 07, 2017   T ~     May 07, 2017   R     May 07, 2017   R     May 07, 2017   O   May 07, 2017     I

  Our deepest sympathies are extended to Joe's family, friends, and classmates at this difficult time.

Lead On, O King Eternal

Words by Ernest W. Shurtleff (04 Apr 1862 - 24 Aug 1917), 1888
Music (Lancashire) by Henry T. Smart (26 Oct 1813 - 06 July 1879), 1836

Shurtleff wrote this hymn wrote this hymn for the graduation ceremony at Andover Theological Seminary, where he was a member of the class of 1888.

 Lead on, O King eternal,
The day of march has come;
Henceforth in fields of conquest
Thy tents shall be our home:
Through days of preparation
Thy grace has made us strong,
And now, O King eternal,
We lift our battle song.

Lead on, O King eternal,
Till sin's fierce war shall cease,
And Holiness shall whisper
The sweet amen of peace;
For not with swords loud clashing,
Nor roll of stirring drums,
But deeds of love and mercy,
The heav'nly kingdom comes.

Lead on, O King eternal,
We follow, not with fears;
For gladness breaks like morning
Where'er thy face appears;
Thy cross is lifted o'er us;
We journey in its light:
The crown awaits the conquest;
Lead on, O God of might.
