When mists of doubt and fear encompass thought,
And sorrow, pain, and discord peal seem,
Be still and know that Truth, when humbly sought,
Reveals all evil as a mortal dream.
Look up to God in prayer and find surcease;
Love's angels are beside thee all the way—
Truth's messengers of harmony and peace.
Be swift to answer, ready to obey.
If doubt and limitation still seem near,
Rejoice, be glad, lift up thy voice in song;
These are but shadows which will disappear
Before angelic thoughts which vanquish wrong.
If in affliction we but recognize
The lessons that reside in human cares,
And prove them to be blessings in disguise,
We entertain Love's angels unawares.
