TOMORROW'S NEWS, by                    
First Line: There will be news tomorrow
Last Line: Will be as god shall choose.
Subject(s): Religion; Theology


There will be news tomorrow:
News of sorrow
May be; hard and sharp and cutting:
Shutting
Off a breath of sweetness,
Life's completeness
Shattering further;
Clashing hard on one another
Hope and faith: but God will choose
The wisest news.
If I tonight
Were given to write,
By my own will, the words to shape
Tomorrow's course, sleep would escape
Me, and the wings
Of my light heart would be bound. God ordereth things;
And I but pray:
Shape Thou my destiny,
And use me to Thy will.
Or let me lie quite still
Within Thy hand. The news
Will be as God shall choose.
