Trust Is Best

By Adelaide A. Procter

I THINK if thou couldst see, With thy dim mortal sight, How meanings dark to thee Are shadows hiding light, Truth's efforts crossed and vexed, Life's purpose all perplexed,— If thou couldst see them right, I think that they would seem all clear, and wise, and bright.
And yet thou canst not know, And yet thou canst not see; Wisdom and sight are slow In poor humanity. If thou couldst trust, poor soul, Thou wouldst find peace and rest; Wisdom and sight are well, but trust is best.
—Adelaide A. Procter.
