Explore "Peace" by Mary Alice Walton on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
/ Father, before Thee I am kneeling / In gratitude and love, / Sad, weary years I sought, appealing / For succor from above. / My cries seemed wild as unavailing / Before Thy chastening rod, / My spirit in the strife oft failing / To trust Thee, O my God!
When floods of sorrow o'er me sweeping, / Thy hand I could not see; / Then Thou, when heart and strength were yielding, / Bade me to cling to thee. / Strength from Thy promise gave endurance / To stem, to cross the flood; / I thank Thee; rest in blest assurance / Of Jesus' cleansing blood.
