If GOD DIsPosEs

Surely it was no sin to love
The dear one He had given,
Though mortal yet so nearly like
An angel lent from Heaven twinet
Round whom my heart so closely
1t could not easy be entwined
] ask not what the coming days
Will bring or take from me,
How much of sunshine or of shade
May for my portion be;
If daily blest can recall
How His kind care is over all.
Still it was pleasant just to dream
Thro' many a leisure, hour,
while life was young and confident
To win bewitching power
Der skies with promise radiant
Harvests to reap luxuriant
But now with help divine it is
Most real felicity
Come roses on their thorns, to say
In all sincerely
Under both yelled and cloudless sun
Father, not mine, Thy will be done

After marriage there was enough
