THY WILL.

By Cornelia Snow

BY CORNELIA SNOW.
Why should I doubt that this way is Thy will,— This rugged way, beset with darkest ill?
Did I not plead for wisdom in my choice, And prayerful listen for Thy guiding voice?
Did I not count the cost, come weal or woe, To follow bravely whither Thou shouldst go?
Now, that darkness looms on every side, Dare I to think that Thou wast not my guide?
Altho the foe with painful, dead’ning blow, Has in the dust my forces all laid low;
And changed my morning song of hope and joy To pleading for this draught some sweet alloy;
Yet still, I will believe Thou’st brought me here; Nor backward look with vain regret and fear.
Enough to know that I have followed Thee, And so, this path must be the best for me.
Portland, Me.
