“YET NOT I, BUT CHRIST.”

By Mabel Fallley De Vona

MABEL FALLLEY DE VONA.
  • (Chicago, Ill.)*
I CAME with fingers bruised and torn From toiling in the sun. Christ whispered, as he healed my hurt, “Let me work, little one.”
I wrought in agonizing prayer To pour my soul away; But Jesus stilled my cries, and said, “Hush now, and let me pray.”
I cried, O blessed Lord, behold My new, great love to thee! He drew me to his heart, and said, “That was my gift to thee.”
