REASONING WITH GOD.
O hidden Lord, most wise and rich,
Whom oft I love, but often fear;
Of light and dark, oft doubting which,
Doth most upon Thy works appear:
Why, if in Thee no darkness is,
So deep a shade on human kind?
If Thou be Father, tell me this,
Why the sad heart, the troubled mind?
Whom oft I love, but often fear;
Of light and dark, oft doubting which,
Doth most upon Thy works appear:
Why, if in Thee no darkness is,
So deep a shade on human kind?
If Thou be Father, tell me this,
Why the sad heart, the troubled mind?
Then said a voice, “This truth within thee store,
And wait, believing, ere thou askest more:
Earth is a cloud which Time shall puff away,
Then shalt thou see the heaven and feel the day.”
And wait, believing, ere thou askest more:
Earth is a cloud which Time shall puff away,
Then shalt thou see the heaven and feel the day.”
