Poems (Carter)/A new day
A NEW DAY.
Another day of blessed work
And loving praise is dawning!
Another day to walk with God!
Another hopeful morning!
Another day for Wisdom's hand
To number ere it passeth;
Another day for Love's increase,
As treasure it amasseth.
And loving praise is dawning!
Another day to walk with God!
Another hopeful morning!
Another day for Wisdom's hand
To number ere it passeth;
Another day for Love's increase,
As treasure it amasseth.
The treasure that no foe can spoil,
Our treasure safe in Heaven,
Where our heart is—at Christ's right hand,
By whom all grace was given.
Another day to prove His grace,
For all our need sufficient,
For patience, courage, tender love,
Or service wise, efficient.
Our treasure safe in Heaven,
Where our heart is—at Christ's right hand,
By whom all grace was given.
Another day to prove His grace,
For all our need sufficient,
For patience, courage, tender love,
Or service wise, efficient.
Another day! God working with us!
Then at its close—God waiting for us!
Then at its close—God waiting for us!
Gt. Barrington, Aug., 1914.
