  “Have faith in God, for He who reigns on high Hath borne thy grief, and hears the suppliant’s sigh; Still to His arms, thine only refuge, fly, Have faith in God! “Fear not to call on Him, O soul distressed! Thy sorrow’s whisper woos thee to His breast; He who is oftenest there is oftenest blest. Have faith in God! “Lean not on Egypt’s reeds; slake not thy thirst At earthly cisterns. Seek the Kingdom first. Though man and Satan fright thee with their worst, Have faith in God! “Go, tell Him all! The sigh thy bosom heaves Is heard in heaven. Strength and peace He gives, Who gave Himself for thee. Our Jesus lives; Have faith in God!” Anna Shipton. |
