Religion

The Comforter

by Cora C. Bass 1868–1928

From Poems (1899)

Religion

He seeketh the rich and the poor,
The weary, long suffering, sad;
He giveth them strength to endure,
He maketh them glad.
Out of the midst of their sorrow
He bringeth them peace;
Ruleth to-day as to-morrow,
When sorrow shall cease.
