By the Sea, and Other Verses
Learning all His will;

He alone can walk before them

Worthily and well;

He alone of life's strange language

Can the meaning tell.

May I then with heart as tender

As a little child

Lead my flock; and Father, keep them

Pure and undefiled.

 PEACE

O blessed peace, that floweth like a river,

Unstayed, unwearied, ever on and on;

That hath its fount and spring in Christ the giver,

And finds its ocean round the great white Throne.

O peace of God, that passeth understanding,

Thou art the answer to my soul's long quest;

Doubts, fears and sins, their serried hosts disbanding,

I leave, launch on thy wave, and anchored, rest.

[Pg 22]
