In God's Care

By Julia E. Abbott

I KNOW not what beyond may lie, When sunset tints illumine the sky; To-morrow, be it dark or bright, Is sealed and hidden from my sight; When flowers fold, and shadows creep, I lay me down in peace to sleep.
I know not what the day will bring What lesson hold, what new, strange thing In life's deep meaning I may trace, Where light and shadow interlace: My Father's hand the way doth keep; I lay me down in peace to sleep.
I know not what the day will bring Of joy or pain, what changes ring Ere day and night complete the year: I trust in God and have no fear; For his great love is strong and deep: I lay me down in peace to sleep.
—Julia E. Abbott.
