In the darkest time of World War II in the city of London a message came across the air to bring a New Year’s message to the discouraged people. In the process the announcer quoted the following poem:
“I said to a man who stood at the gate
of the year
Give me a light that I may tread,
safely into the unknown.
And he said, “Go out into the night
and put your hand into the Hand
of God.
That will be to you better than a
light, and safer than a known
way.”
