My God Is There

FRANCES S. LARKIN

Where the rich blossoms of the springtime sway,
And flash their colors in the rising sun,
And seem to breathe out, opening one by one,
A little prayer to bless the newborn day—
My God is there.

Where the bright glories of the sunlight beat,
And hope sings high, wrapped in the joy of noon,
I press close to my heart Love's wondrous boon;
Secure in this my present, sure retreat,
I rest in prayer.

And when the clouds come up and hide the light,
In my sure haven I feel doubly blest;
I lift my thought to Him and, quiet, rest;
I clasp my Father's hand and hold it tight,
Safe in His care.
