ASSURANCE

From the February 1938 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Did I but know the road that lies before,
I should not falter, though the consuming night
Shroud with its blackness friendly things from sight,
Shutting off nearness like an unyielding door.
Did I but know! Yet, have I not of yore
Known sweet security, following saddest plight?
After the darkness, ever the day's dear light!
After the shipwreck, ever the solid shore!

I shall not falter! I shall forever know
Safety though danger threaten; guidance above
All that men's ingenuities have planned.
I shall abide in understanding's glow!
I shall be safe in all-encircling Love!
shall cling, steadfast, to the Father's hand!
