Don't Borrow Trouble

By L. C. Hutchins

Don't borrow trouble any more, Lay it aside, my dear. The Maker ruled the world quite well Ere ever you were here. And doubtless He will rule as well When you are gone away; Then trust His boundless wisdom still To rule it while you stay.

The Ruler of the universe Most surely will do right; Rely upon His promises By faith and not by sight; Remember that His promise is, “Ask, and ye shall receive.” The sole condition always this, You must His word believe.

Write “disappointment” now with ease, By using “h” for “d”; Transposed, the disappointment flees,— ’Tis “His appointment”—see!

L. C. HUTCHINS.
