Poems

I longed to gird the harness on...

From the June 1894 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I longed to gird the harness on,
To work with might and will;
Stern was the voice that said to me,—
"My child, wait and be still.

He only knoweth how to serve
Who knoweth how to wait;
Thus test I all who wish to work
Within my vineyard gate."
