GOD'S TO-MORROW by WILLIAM ARTHUR DUNKERLEY

First Line: THE NIGHT IS VERY BLACK AND GRIM
Last Line: IN SEARCH OF GOD'S TO-MORROW.
Subject(s): RELIGION; THEOLOGY;
The night is very black and grim,
-- Our hearts are sick with sorrow, --
But, on the rim of the curtain dim,
A pulsing beam, a tiny gleam,
Whispers of God's To-morrow.

Beyond the night there shines a light,
-- Our eyes are dim with sorrow, --
But Faith still clings, and Hope still springs,
And Love still sings of happier things,
For Life is flighting strong new wings
In search of God's To-morrow.
