I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me; until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end. (Psa. 73:3,16‑17)
Gently loosens He thy hold
Of the treasured former things —
Loves and joys that were of old,
Shapes to which the spirit clings —
And alone, alone He stands,
Stretching forth beseeching hands.
In Thy strength my soul is still
Clay within the potter’s hands,
Molded by Thy tender will
Mightier than all commands;
Shaped and moved by Thee alone,
Now, and evermore Thine own.
