The Way that He Willeth for Me

CYRENE EMERY.

The way that He willeth in love for me,That is the way for me!And I do not care how thorny and bareThe journey may seem to be,If only afar, on the mountain-side,In the light of the sun, I may seeThe shining garments and beckoning handOf the Guide He has sent to me.

Hidden Treasure

Poem

The Church of Christ
