YES! He knows the way is dreary, Knows the weakness of our frame, Knows that hand and heart are weary; He, 'in all points,' felt the same. He is near to help and bless; Be not weary, onward press. Look to Him who once was willing All His glory to resign, That, for thee the law fulfilling, All His merit might be thine. Strive to follow day by day Where His footsteps mark the way. Look to Him, the Lord of Glory, Tasting death to win thy life; Gazing on 'that wondrous story,' Canst thou falter in the strife? Is it not new life to know That the Lord hath loved thee so? Look to Him who ever liveth, Interceding for His own: Seek, yea, claim the grace He giveth Freely from His priestly throne. Will He not thy strength renew With His Spirit's quickening dew? Look to Him and faith shall brighten, Hope shall soar, and love shall burn; Peace once more thy heart shall lighten— Rise! He calleth thee, return! Be not weary on thy way, Jesus is thy strength and stay. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...DOMESDAY BOOK: ELENOR MURRAY by EDGAR LEE MASTERS SONNETS TO LAURA IN LIFE: 156 by PETRARCH EVE by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI UNDERWOODS: BOOK 2: 16.
