IF I BUT READ The Lord I love went on ahead To make a home for me. He said He would come back again, and He— Oh gracious love He wrote to me! He knew I was so weak and blind And foolish that I could not find The road alone. He told me things That all earth's wise men, and its kings Have never guessed, yet I foreknow If I but read His Word, and oh Such depths of love on every sheet! M y soul is trembling at His feet. What would He think of me If when I saw Him I should say, " I was too busy every day To read what Thou didst write to me; I really hadn't time for Thee." — Martha Snell Nicholson Be sure, when you ask for criti cism, you're not looking for praise. TOMORROW'S BURDEN He does not lead me year by year Nor even day by day. But step by step my path unfolds; M y Lord directs my way. Tomorrow's plans I do not know, I only know this minute; But He will say, "This is the way. By faith now walk ye in it." And I am glad that it is so. Today's enough to bear; And when tomorrow comes, His grace Shall far exceed its care. What need to worry then, or fret? The God who gave His Son Holds all my moments in His hand And gives them, one by one. When you flee temptation make sure you don't leave a forwarding address. . . . The truth never hurts anyone un less it ought to.
