Promises

        God hath not promised
        Skies always blue,
        Flower-strewn pathways
        All our lives through.
        God hath not promised 
        Sun without rain,
        Joy without sorrow,
        Peace without pain.
        
        But God hath promised
        Strength for the day,
        Rest for the labor,
        Light for the way
        Grace for the trials,
        Help from above,
        Unfailing sympathy
        Undying love . . . 
        
        LORD LET ME LAUGH AGAIN,
