TODAY by MARY FRANCES MARSHALL BUTTS

First Line: BUILD A LITTLE FENCE OF TRUST
Last Line: OF JOY OR SORROW.
Subject(s): RELIGION; THEOLOGY;

Build a little fence of trust
Around today;
Fill the space with loving work
And therein stay.

Look not through the shelt'ring bars
Upon tomorrow;
God will help thee bear what comes
Of joy or sorrow.
