My Sheep.

"My sheep hear my voice and I know them, and they follow me."—John x, 27.
O let me hear thy voice, And I will weep no more; My weary soul would fain rejoice, If all these doubts were o'er.
Once I could see thy smile,— 'Twas beautiful and fair: I'd ask no greater joy the while Than to behold thee there.
Where sins and doubts and fears No more beset the way; And sorrow's sigh, and countless tears, Dim not the lustrous day.
Am I thy sheep, my God? So cold, so far from thee! Oh! let thy smile illumine the road, Then I thy steps can see.
Thousands of doubts arise To drive me from thy throne; By faith I mount the starry skies And long to be thine own.
