FAITH IN GOD.

By Allie A. Santee

Oh, for more faith in God! Faith all unquestioning; Though we pass ’neath the rod, He in good time will bring Joy to the aching heart, Rest for the weary one, Blessings and strength impart Until the journey’s done.

Oh, for more faith in God! Faith in his willingness Ever to hear our cries, Ever to help and bless; Laying aside all fear, May we with gladness sing, Feeling our Father’s near, Guiding and sheltering.

Oh, for more faith in God! Trusting his love for me, Hopefully looking for That home awaiting me. Bidding adieu for aye To life’s tempestuous sea, Welcoming joyfully Heaven’s eternity.

Oh, for more faith in God! Trust in his mighty arm, Sheltered beneath his love, Ne’er to feel pain or harm, Ne’er to feel doubt again, No more wild questioning, Trusting him restfully, As to his hand I cling!
