NOT as Thy ways, our ways
We bow before Thy face;
Not like. Thy thought, our thought,
As by Thy Spirit taught.
Not as our ways, Thy ways!
Father, Thy name we praise;
Not as our thoughts, Thy thoughts,
Told by the love-work wrought.
P. 347
" The leaf may fall and perish, not less the Spring will come;" beautiful because true, divinely true. Oh, what a thing faith is, to stand in the midst of such ruins and to feel that all is well.
