FAITH, HOPE, AND LOVE

By Joseph Harvey Waggoner

BY ELD. J. H. WAGGONER.
WHEN all is dark, no sun, no moon, To cast their light upon our way, When clouds and tempests hide the noon, Nor promise give of coming day, Then hope in God forbids our tears, O blessed hope to calm our fears; And faith gives light e'en through the tomb, O, joyful faith to light the gloom!
When earthly treasures all are lost, And earthly friends prove all untrue, When all our dearest aims are crossed, With not a ray to cheer the view; Hope tunes our harps, faith lights our way, But love alone can make our day; Though faith and hope shall bid us rise, 'Tis love shall bear us to the skies.
—From Pearly Portals.
