Hidden treasures

Read these lyrics, friends. And really read them. They speak much more beautifully then I could dare hope to utter in words. Let the words touch your soul, and speak truth into your life. I found them again yesterday, after many months away...

o love that wilt not let me go
i rest my weary soul in thee
i give thee back the life i owe
that in thine oceans depths its flow
may richer, fuller be.

o light that followest all my way,
i yield my flickering torch to thee;
my heart restores its borrowed ray,
that in thy sunshine's blaze its day
may brighter, fairer be.

o joy that seekest me through pain;
i cannot close my heart to thee;
i trace the rainbow through the rain.,
and feel the promise is not vain,
that morn shall tearless be.

o cross that liftest up my head,
i dare not ask to fly from thee
i lay in dust life's glory dead,
and from the ground there blossoms red
life that shall endless be.
