A LIVING FAITH

Jennie Baird Schooley

With childlike faith
I take God's hand;
With trustful heart
And prayerful thought
I listen and obey;
The path is shown,
The light springs forth
That leads the way
To light of day.
The dark clouds lift;
God's power is felt
And smooths the path,
Then fears and doubts
Are all dispelled;
I pray and rise
To clearer skies
Where peace doth reign.
Guided by Love,
Each step is gain
To paths above
Earth's frailties.
