Recompense

ELLA MAY FRAZER

Does Love demandYou lay upon the altarYour cherished hopes,Your plans, your friendships,And your visioned joy?If this is serving God,Then go and kneelIn willing self-surrender,Strengthened by the prayer,"Thy will be done,"Confident that Love's eternal goodnessWill recompense your lossWith heaven's gain.Be not afraid;Do not rebel. Instead,In patient serviceFind the promised joyEnlarged and brought to glad fruition,Safe in Soul,Wherein the son of manBeholds in truthThe son of God,And hears, "My son,Beloved of Love,With thee I am well pleased."
