My Heart’s Desire

MAGGIE A. PULVER
Give me, O Lord, a faith that clings When darkness hides my Saviour’s form,— A faith that ’mid life’s conflicts sings, And bides with me in calm and storm.
Give me, O Lord, a faith that feels That thou hast portioned me my lot According to my mortal needs,— My weakness thou hast not forgot,—
A living faith, a perfect trust That fails not till the crown is won, That lays my loved ones in the dust, And calmly says, “God’s will be done,”—
A faith that grasps the Infinite, And lays my treasures up on high; That guides my footsteps day and night To mansions waiting in the sky.
Stoddard, Wis.
