Believe! Have faith enough to trust A God of Love . . But wait! Impatience cannot sway The King above He, Who has heard the anguish'd cries Of His Own Son to heav'n rise, Shall yet hear ours! Not oncenor twice— thousand times Perchance. we pray'd; And yet an unrelenting God Our boon delay'd; 1 He, Who had plenty turn'd away He left us hurt, in doubt, dismay Uncomforted. Bepulsed ! Ah, no; for now we see God's wondrous way; But heard ! For God does hear-each one - That comes to pray. Thro' the grey mist the light will gleam, And help will come just when 'twould seem That all were lost! Believe! Have faith enough to know God will reply. Believe! The God Who gave His Son Naught can deny; But knock and ask; then knock again— Turn not with doubting heart of painBut knock, and ask! Angela Hastings. Dunedin. ■'-.-
