Only Believe.

By Mrs. L. D. A. Stuttle

ONLY believe, though the thick rising tempest Cover with darkness the light of the sun, Jesus will pilot you over in safety, Trustingly lean on the crucified One. Tarry no longer, to doubt and to grieve, Rest on his promise, rejoice and believe.
Oh! there is peace, there is joy in believing, Why should we doubt when the promise is sure, There will be joy in the glorious morning, Resting and peace, if we only endure. Murmur no more 'neath the chastening rod, Only believe in the promise of God.
Trembling spirit, o'er burdened with sorrow, Do not despond in the midst of thy grief, Go and unburden thy heart to the Master, Know that he hears, and will bring you relief. Walk in the path that thy Saviour has trod, Cheerfully rest on the promise of God.
Can we not trust Him, our kind elder Brother? Why should we grovel in doubt and despair? When the dark cloud of affliction may gather, Only believe, that he answereth prayer. Many a blessing our souls would receive, If from our hearts, we could only believe.
MRS. L. D. A. STUTTLE.
