Have Faith in God

By R. Hare

WHY anxious for tomorrow and its need? And why forgetful of the hand divine? As yesterday, today his holy care Abundantly supplied your wants and mine.
“Sufficient for each day,” while days must pass, And passing number years, but to unfold His wondrous plan, that ever faileth not To turn the green of spring to summer’s gold.
Why fearful, since upon his mighty hand The world’s unnumbered evermore depend; Thy little life his might can well supply, And all thy goings perfectly defend.
Cease, then, to murmur or in thought complain; Walk in the light his love supplies today; Content that for tomorrow and its need The hand unseen will plan that guides thy way.
Be anxious only for the trust bestowed— The task assigned, to thee in kindness given, And in love’s duty, without anxious thought, Find the blest path that leads to life and heaven.
— R. Hare.
