Faith
“Keep this for me.”What child has not said this,And placed a treasure in his Mother’s handWith strict injunction she should keep it safeTill he return?He knows with her it will be safe;No troubled thought or anxious fear besets his mind,And off he runs light-hearted to his play.
If children can so trust, why cannot we,And place our treasures , too, in God’s safe hand;Our hopes, ambitions, needs, and those we love,Just see them, in his all embracing care,And say with joyous heart, “They are with Thee.”
