Love
The Heart That is Hard to Win
From Poems (1899)
Love
Is there a heart that is hard to win,
A heart to itself untrue?
Never is heart so wrapped in sin
That the light cannot creep through.
Never are feet so slow to climb
As the feet too softly shod;
Never is life so full, sublime,
As the life that leads to God.
