IN THE EVENING OF LIFE, by BERTHA LEE REDMAN
First Line: Does it matter, dear god
Last Line: Coming straight from the hand of love.
Subject(s): God; Life
First Line: Does it matter, dear god
Last Line: Coming straight from the hand of love.
Subject(s): God; Life
Does it matter, dear God,
If at the heart of things,
There is left little room for me?
For the golden thread
And the silken web
Of life's mesh is all of Thee.
And my life to me
Is a gift I see
Coming straight from the hand of Love.
