THE HAPPY RESTING.
Thou sleepest not:—how safely may we sleep!Thou slumb'rest not:—how sweet our rest should be!
Fear we for our Belovèd? Thou wilt keep
The watch, we do but yield them unto Thee.
Nor need we yield them prayerfully, as though
They were commended to a stranger's care;
Having so long time known Thee, Lord, we know
It is enough for them that Thou art there.
