Serenity

LAURA LEE RANDALL

"Let not your heart be troubled." Jesus' words,Though gently said far off and long ago.Are louder than the tortured drums of war,More constant than the fretting round of toil,And nearer than the self beset by fears.

When we shall listen to his kind commandWith all our hearts, the jarring evidenceOf strife and stress and sense will be annulledBy boundless courage, calm and steadfast joy.Thus do we reach our haven—undisturbed.
