Be quiet! why this anxious heed
About thy tangled ways?
God knows them all. He giveth speed
And He allows delays.
'Tis good for thee to walk by faith
And not by sight.
Take it on trust a little while.
Soon shalt thou read the mystery aright
In the full sunshine of His smile.
In times of uncertainty, wait.
Always if you have any doubt, wait.
Do not force yourself to any action.
If you have a restraint in your spirit, wait until all is clear, and do not go against it.
