Love

O Love! thou makest all things even 
In earth or heaven; 
Finding thy way through prison-bars 
Up to the stars; 
Or, true to the Almighty plan, 
That out of dust created man, 
Thou lookest in a grave,--to see 
Thine immortality! 


Nearer, my God, to Thee

Nearer, my God, to Thee,
   Nearer to Thee!
E'en though it be a cross
   That raiseth me;
Still all my song would be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
   Nearer to Thee!

Though like the wanderer,
   The sun gone down,
Darkness be over me,
   My rest alone.
Yet in my dreams I'd be
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
   Nearer to Thee!

There let the way appear
   Steps unto heav'n;
All that Thou sendest me
   In mercy giv'n;
Angels to beckon me
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
   Nearer to Thee!

   Bright with Thy praise,
Out of my stony griefs
   Bethel I'll raise;
So by my woes to be
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
   Nearer to Thee!

Or if on joyful wing,
   Cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot,
   Upwards I fly,
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
   Nearer to Thee!


O Love! Thou Makest All Things Even

O Love! thou makest all things even 
In earth or heaven; 
Finding thy way through prison-bars 
Up to the stars; 
Or, true to the Almighty plan, 
That out of dust created man, 
Thou lookest in a grave,--to see 
Thine immortality! 


He Sendeth Sun, He Sendeth Shower

He sendeth sun, he sendeth shower, 
Alike they're needful for the flower: 
And joys and tears alike are sent 
To give the soul fit nourishment. 
As comes to me or cloud or sun, 
Father! thy will, not mine, be done! 
Can loving children e'er reprove 
With murmurs whom they trust and love? 
Creator! I would ever be 
A trusting, loving child to thee: 
As comes to me or cloud or sun, 
Father! thy will, not mine, be done! 
Oh, ne'er will I at life repine: 
Enough that thou hast made it mine. 
When falls the shadow cold of death 
I yet will sing, with parting breath, 
As comes to me or shade or sun, 
Father! thy will, not mine, be done!
