Amen.

I cannot say
Beneath the pressure of life's care to-day,
] joy in these
But / can say
That had rather walk this rugged way,
If Him it please.
I cannot feel
That all is we'll when dark'ning clouds
conceal
The shining sun;
But then / know
God lives and loves; and say, since it is SO,
''Thy will be DONE"
I cannot speak
In happy tones; the teardrops on my
cheek
Show I am sad:
But | can speak
OF grace to suffer with submission meek,
Until made glad.
/ do not see
Why God should cen permit some things
to be,
When He is love;
But [ can see
Though often dimly, through the mystery,
His hand above.
I may not try
To keep the hot tears back; but hush that
sigh,
at might have been;'
And try to still
Each rising murmur, and to Gods sweet
ResDOnd-Amen.
