Lord, Shut Us In

By WORTHIE HARRIS HOLDEN

WORTHIE HARRIS HOLDEN
LORD, shut us in. Soon heaven above Will pour floods from the sky, And earthly founts their bars remove To bear our ark on high.
Thy love that beckoned us within Sustained us by its grace; So keep us, though the taunts of sin Deride us to our face.
Long we believed what now we see,— The end is very nigh. O, shut us in alone with thee, And guide us by thine eye!
With thee, O Lord, our loss is gain, Our trials but befriend; No sacrifice for thee is vain, For glory crowns its end.
