OUTDOOR PEACE - by Amos Russel Wells




OUTDOOR   PEACE 


by Amos Russel Wells


    Have fears and worries vexed you ?
    Go out among the trees;
    Think: He who made all these
    Will He not well protect you ?


    Do thronging doubts molest you ?
    Sit down there in the sun
    Where heaven's joys o'errun,
    And think how God has blessed you.


    Does some one scorn or slight you ?
    Stand forth among the hills,
    Forget your petty ills
    Remember: God will right you.


    Do long, long sorrows grieve you ?
    Look upward to the stars,
    And think: No anguish mars
    The home that will receive you.
