A poem by William Lisle Bowles

Path Of Life

________________________________________________
Title:     Path Of Life
Author: William Lisle Bowles [More Titles by Bowles]

O Lord, in sickness and in health,
To every lot resigned,
Grant me, before all worldly wealth,
A meek and thankful mind!

As, life, thy upland path we tread,
And often pause in vain,
To think of friends and parents dead,
Oh, let us not complain!

The Lord may give or take away,
But nought our faith can move,
Whilst we to heaven can look and say,
Our Father lives above.





[The end]
