To-day, we say, AMI stretch our hands,
impatient wise toward some rare gift OF good,
nat to our errlng human vision stande
Just beyond our reach, and heaycnward.
y Kind parent puts the costly book or toy
Beyond the reach of eager fingers, till the time
ten children wiser grown, shall ind more JOY
In W0ndrous mechanism or in pleasant rhyme,
- the wise Father answers our impatient hearts,
And gently whispers Not today my child,'
And holds the blessing from Us and imparrs
The balm OF sorrow 10 our aching hearts mean
while.
And when his loving judgment sees that we
Have nohler grown, and, purified through pain
Have learned to say "Thy will be done" in deep
sincerity,
No more demanding what erstwhilc we asked il
vain
Then, perchan2e that we may toreta,te heaven il
this world of ours
He brings the gift and lays it in our patien
hands,
To oar clear sight A thousand fold more beautiful
and crowned with flowers
For every saddened hour. For every tear shin
my jewel stands.
