| + | By Edna den Dulk | ||
| + | |||
| + | DRAWN by Thine own great love, O Christ Divine, | ||
| + | \\ I yield my all and whisper, “I am Thine.” | ||
| + | \\ Safe from all fear or taint of earth’s decay, | ||
| + | \\ Thou art my strength, my portion and my stay. | ||
| + | |||
| + | In Thee, O Christ, I rest from all my woes, | ||
| + | \\ Receive the gifts which Thy great love bestows. | ||
| + | \\ As wave on wave, the ripples shoreward press, | ||
| + | \\ The fullness of Thy grace doth soothe and bless. | ||
| + | |||
| + | And though a golden beam of endless light, | ||
| + | \\ Strong-winged enough to pierce earth’s darkest night, | ||
| + | \\ Thy love is poured, and as it gently shines, | ||
| + | \\ Joy, Peace and hope within its rays confines. | ||
| + | |||
| + | My weary quest is ended. Like the dove, | ||
| + | \\ I now have found the green leaf of Thy love. | ||
| + | \\ I fold my wings and rest beneath the cross, | ||
| + | \\ No more the storms my tranquil soul shall toss. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Midst toil and strife, in calm repose I’m blest, | ||
| + | \\ As John of old upon Thy heart did rest. | ||
| + | \\ At last my aching heart has found its home, | ||
| + | \\ My peaceful spirit doth no longer roam. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Secure in Thee, and shaken by no fears, | ||
| + | \\ No shadows fall across the distant years. | ||
| + | \\ Thy brightness clears the mists of doubt away, | ||
| + | \\ And makes the night of gloom an endless day. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The joys of sweet submission to Thy will | ||
| + | \\ The fleeting days with ringing gladness fill. | ||
| + | \\ Thy love, eternal, boundless as the sea, | ||
| + | \\ From all the storms of life doth shelter me. | ||
| + | |||
| + | When grim fear lurks sometimes around the soul, | ||
| + | \\ And clouds and shadows dark obscure the goal, | ||
