A poem by Christina Georgina Rossetti

Patience Of Hope

________________________________________________
Title:     Patience Of Hope
Author: Christina Georgina Rossetti [More Titles by Rossetti]

The flowers that bloom in sun and shade
And glitter in the dew,
The flowers must fade.
The birds that build their nest and sing
When lovely spring is new,
Must soon take wing.

The sun that rises in his strength
To wake and warm the world,
Must set at length.
The sea that overflows the shore
With billows frothed and curled,
Must ebb once more.

All come and go, all wax and wane,
O Lord, save only Thou
Who dost remain
The Same to all eternity.
All things which fail us now
We trust to Thee.




[The end]
Christina Georgina Rossetti's poem: Patience Of Hope
