TRUSTFULNESS

By Hubert Bower

LORD, let me rest as sleeps the child A mother sings to rest, Safe in its utter helplessness Upon her sheltering breast; Then shall this restless heart of mine In thee be fully blest.
Lay thou thy hand of tender love Upon my feverish brow, And as the Master healed of old, So heal the suffering now; Speak, and the deep unrest shall flee, And I in reverence bow.
Teach me that helplessness is strength, United to thy might; That some may see thy glories best In sorrow’s darkest night; That we must pass the land of shades To reach the land of light.
—Hubert Bower.
