GOD'S FORESTRY by ANNA BUNSTON DE BARY

First Line: THERE IS A TREE SO DEAR TO HEAVEN
Last Line: AND GROWS BUT IN THE SOIL OF PAIN.
Subject(s): COURAGE; GOD; VALOR; BRAVERY;

THERE is a tree so dear to Heaven
That God would send new sun, new rain
Ere He would let one sapling wither,
One single seed be set in vain:
It is the tree of Humble Courage,
And grows but in the soil of Pain.
