“
Oh seize the instant time; you never willWith waters once passed by impel the mill.
— Richard Chenevix Trench
Oh seize the instant time; you never willWith waters once passed by impel the mill.
What question can be here? Your own true heartThat it was left us to enjoy it long.
Not all who seem to fail have failed indeed,There is no failure for the good and brave.
None but God can satisfy the longings of an immortal soul; that as the heart was made for Him, so He only can fill it.
We live not in our moments or our years: Bitter to taste.
Thou cam'st not to thy place by accident,Do not for this give room for discontent.
As shadows attend substances, so words follow upon things.
It was Lazarus faith, not his poverty, which brought him into Abraham's bosom.
We kneel, how weak; we rise, how full of power!And joy and strength and courage are with Thee?
