Christian Poems of VICTORY!

(Various authors)

"One in His death on the tree, one as He rose from the dead! - I from the curse am set free, E'en as my glorious Head! - One in His merits I stand, one as I pray in His Name!

"All that His worth can demand, I may with confidence claim!

"All that He has shall be mine, all that He is I shall be! - Robed in His glory divine, I shall be even as He!" -AB Simpson (DOHOE 12/1)

(See 1Jn 4:17)

"'I will be still!,' my bruised heart faintly murmured, as o're me rolled a crushing load of woe; The cry, the call, e'en the low moan was stifled - I pressed my lips, I barred the teadrops flow!

"I will be still, although I cannot see it - the love that bares a soul and fans pain's fire; That takes away the last sweet drop of solace, breaks the lone harp string, hides Thy precious lyre!

"But God is love. So I will 'bide me, 'bide me -- We'll doubt not, soul, we will be very still; We'll wait till after while, when He shall lift us -- Yes, after while, when it shall be His will!

"And I did listen to my heart's brave promise; And I did quiver, struggling to be still; And I did lift my tearless eyes to heaven, repeating over, 'Yea, Christ, have Thy will!'

"But soon my heart upspake from 'neath our burden, reproved my tight-drawn lips, my visage sad; 'We can do more than this, O soul,' it whispered. 'We can be more than still, we can be GLAD!'

"And now my heart and I sweetly singing -- Singing without the sound of tuneful strings; Drinking abundant waters in the desert; Crushed, and yet soaring as on eagle's wings!" --S.P.W.

"Keep up the song of faith, however dark the night; and as you praise, the Lord will work to change your faith to sight!"

"Keep up the song of faith, and let your heart be strong, for God delights when faith can praise though dark the night and long.

"Keep up the song of faith, the foe will hear and flee; oh, let not Satan hush your song - for praise is victory!

"Keep up the song of faith, the dawn will break ere long, and we shall go to meet the Lord, and join the endless Song!" --M.E.Barber
