IN CHRIST.

By John Campbell Shairp

I HAVE a life with Christ to live, But, ere I live it, must I wait Till learning can clear answer give Of this and that book’s date? I have a life in Christ to live, I have a death in Christ to die, And must I wait till science give All doubts a full reply?
Nay, rather, while the sea of doubt Is raging wildly round about, Questioning of life and death and sin, Let me but creep within Thy fold, O Christ, and at Thy feet Take but the lowest seat, And hear Thine awful voice repeat, In gentlest accents, heavenly sweet, “Come unto Me, and rest; Believe Me, and be blest.”
—John Campbell Shairp.
