There is a time when longing fills the soul, There is a time when first we look above, -- A time when first we long to be made whole, Before we venture out upon His love, There is a time when gladness fills our being, A time when Jesus comes to reign supreme. A glorious day we cannot help remember, -- -- After we ventured out, -- Oh praise His name. O, dear remembered time, how dear I hold it, When Jesus spoke sweet peace unto my soul. Come, come my sisters and my earthly brothers And hasten onward with me to the goal. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SCINTILLA by WILLIAM STANLEY BRAITHWAITE SONNETS ATTEMPTED IN THE MANNER OF CONTEMPORARY WRITERS: 3 by SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE WHAT SHALL IT PROFIT? by WILLIAM DEAN HOWELLS TWILIGHT by DAVID HERBERT LAWRENCE FROM THE IONIAN ISLANDS by RICHARD MONCKTON MILNES THE NAME OF JESUS by JOHN NEWTON |
