Be Patient, Brethren

By Lillian S. Connerly

LILLIAN S. CONNERLY
Be patient, brethren! Don’t mind that things go wrong that you can’t right, Results you long to know are veiled from sight, That darkness deepens when you long for light. Be patient, brethren!
Be patient, brethren! The righteous character you long for so Is forming, but it takes long years to grow; Not till He comes, you’ll know as he does know. Be patient, brethren!
Be patient, brethren! It matters not what weather on the road We meet; though heavier grows our heavy load. The journey’s end is home and rest with God. Be patient, brethren!
Be patient, brethren! Christ soon is coming; that we know is sure. They’re only safe who to the end endure; And patience is for ills the only cure. Be patient, brethren!
