How often, when the storm was fierce,
My path was dreary, and the thorns did pierce,
I paused, and heeding this divine command,
Beheld sweet roses blooming 'mid the sand.
How often, when I long for rest,
Borne down by toil and care,
I wake to find myself most blest,
God's happy child and heir;
To find that good doth ceaseless flow
To those who heed "Be still, and know."
