O rest of rests! O peace serene, eternal! Thou ever livest, and Thou changest never ! And in the secret of Thy presence dwelleth Fullness of joy, forever and forever.— filed under Heaven
There the patient hand still knocketh, And with every patient watching, With the sad eyes true and tender, With the glory-crowned hair,— Still a God is waiting there.— filed under Impenitent
Between the mysteries of death and life Thou standest, loving, guiding, - not explaining; We ask, and Thou art silent, - yet we gaze, And our charmed hearts forget their drear complaining; No crushing fate, no stony destiny! Thou Lamb that hast been slain, we rest in Thee.— filed under Mystery
Still, still with Thee, when purple morning breaketh, When the bird waketh, and the shadows flee; Fairer than morning, lovelier than the daylight, Dawns the sweet consciousness, - I am with Thee.— filed under Nearness To God And Christ
