Standing Still

By Allen F. Gage

ALLEN F. GAGE
“STAND still, and watch God work”— This is the hardest part, The means that try the soul And test the bravest heart.
We see our fellows strive ’Gainst sin and crime and wrong; We long to act our part, And sing the victor’s song.
To stand, to wait, to hope, To rest, to trust, to pray, Are lessons he would teach In his appointed way.
We may not know the end— He doeth all things best, In darkness as in light; Then in his choosing rest.
Chicago, Ill.
