Love Divine

By D. Middlemas

O heavy heart, with sorrow bowed, Behold the rainbow in the cloud! Know for thy joy that in this spot Where suffering is the common lot, God loveth thee and loves thee well.
Though Summer's hand thou canst not see, When laid on grass and flower and tree, Be this the comfort where thou art, Making glad summer in thy heart; God loveth thee and loves thee well.
Though winds blow easterly and bold, As sheep thou art within the fold. No winter touches thee with frost, For Love the threshold once has crossed; God loveth thee and loves thee well.
The kindness that surroundeth thee, The tender, patient ministry, So gently shown, so freely given, Confirm the truth from highest heaven; God loveth thee and loves thee well.
— D. Middlemas.
