TIME and Patience! These are Angels
By our Heavenly Father sent;
Whispering to our restless spirits,
"Cease to murmur--be content;
God, who is thy truest friend,
Doth our aid in trials send.
When thy weary spirit faileth,
'Neath the weary cross it bears,
God is not unmindful of thee--
He is listening to thy prayers;
From His children's tearful pleading
He will never turn unheeding!"
Heart of mine! Trust thou these Angels;
Lean on Patience, and be calm;
Trust in Time, who is preparing
For thy grief a spirit-balm;
God is merciful, and He
Gave them charge concerning thee.
