The Just, the Strong

By Benjamin Phillips

By Benjamin Phillips
“For I am He in whom thou shouldst have trust, The all-devising hand which crusheth woe; Nor passeth striving mortals here below— To them tho worn yet faithful I am Just,” So speaks that power overwatching all: And in the bud, the bloom, the brook, and breeze The proof stands out, the great Invisible Is ever present over lands and seas.
And man of evil practise goes his way, Yet feels a stayed and changeless power near; The sinful acts, vainglorious display In reminiscence brings a touch of fear. And he, forsaking Strength from day to day, Forfeits sweet hope to lead a vain career.
