The following lines, written by an infidel, were found in his desk after his death: ―
I’ve tried in vain a thousand ways
My fears to quell, my hopes to raise;
But all I need, the Bible says,
Is JESUS.
My soul is night, my heart is steel,
I cannot see, I cannot feel;
For light, for heat, I must appeal
To JESUS.
He died, He lives, He reigns, He pleads.
There’s love in all His acts and deeds;
All, all a guilty sinner needs
Is JESUS.
Though some will mock, and some will blame;
In spite of fear, in spite of shame,
I’ll go to Him because His name
Is JESUS.
