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,
BUT NEVER
LET ME FORGET THAT I CRIED.
