Poems about waiting
for God

Trust and Wait

When I cannot understand my Father’s leading
And it seems but to be hard and cruel fate,
Still I hear that gentle whisper ever pleading,
God is working, God is faithful, only wait.

Songs of the nightingale


Soul of Mine!

O soul of mine, be calm, be still,
Submit thyself to God,
In all thy ways yield to His will,
Nor faint beneath the rod.

O soul of mine, like potter’s clay
Within the Master’ hand,
O let Him mould thee day by day,
Till faultless thou shalt stand.

O soul of mine, have faith, believe,
Nor count the cost of strife,
Fight on, faint not, thou shalt receive
At last the Crown of Life!
