“What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.” Psalm 56:3
“Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid.” Isaiah 12:2
When darkness long has veiled my mind,
And smiling day once more appears,
Then, my Redeemer, then I find
The folly of my doubts and fears.
Straight I upbraid my wandering heart,
And blush that I should ever be
Thus prone to act so base a part,
Or harbor one hard thought of Thee!
Oh, let me then at length be taught
What I am still so slow to learn:
That God is love, and changes not,
Nor knows the shadow of a turn.
