Although I cannot know God's wondrous ways,
Yet I believe from out of life's puzzling maze I shall be brought:
HE KNOWS.
I do not ask to see the journey's end,
For He walks at my side just like a friend, So all is well:
HE SEES.
I will not care, though roads are long and rough,
Sure will His grace sustain, and that's enough
To bear me up:
HE CARES.
I would not be my own guide if I might,
But rather trust in His unerring sight,
To lead me on:
HE GUIDES.
I could not guard myself, for that were vain;
Yet, this I know: He faithful will remain,
And keep me safe:
HE GUARDS.
I would not live, when done my task is here,
For I can heed His summons without fear,
He died for me:
HE LIVES:
So, when from scenes of earth He beckons hence
To fairer realms, 'twill be sweet recompense
Forevermore:
WITH HIM.
Whosoever shall deny Me before men, him will I also deny before My Father which is in heaven.
Matt. 10:33.
