Is this another trial?
Is this another test?
Thou hast given me but little
And kept all the rest.
That little I secure O’ God
Thou givest the best.
Yet though the spring is here,
And everything is bright,
The trees seem so bare
A day seems a night.
The darkness is but worldly,
Just teary are the eyes
My soul is not earthly,
My spirit to Thee flies
All love, all love, O’ God,
There never can be hate,
If this be another trial,
Unshaken is my faith.
