(Taken from the devotional Streams in the Desert)

                    O Thou of little faith, 

         God hath not failed thee yet!

       When all looks dark and gloomy,

                Thou dost so soon forget--

             Forget that He has led thee,

         And gently cleared thy way;

    On clouds has poured His sunshine, 

        And turned thy night to day.

        And if He's helped thee hitherto, 

       He will not fail thee now;

   How it must wound His loving heart

      To see thy anxious brow!

    Oh! doubt not any longer, 

   To Him commit thy way, 

Whom in the past thou trusted,

  And is " just the same today."
