Thou shall see God. Somo day; although thy soul siems full of care. And t eam and doubts assail thee everywhere; Yet, child of earth, tby Father's way Is best And just when Tie sees fit to give thee rest, -■ i-i ■ Thou ehalt see God. Some day that inner life of Ui Ino shall wake To clearer views of truth, and courage take To climb the narr jw. ever winding stair. Tbat leads to higher joys whloh thou Shalt share.
