God’s comfort.

Think not, when the wailing winds of autumn

Drive the shivering leaflets from the trees,—

Think not all is over: spring returneth;

Buds and leaves and blossoms thou shalt see.

Think not, when thy heart is waste and dreary,

When thy cherished hopes lie chill and sere,—

Think not all is over: God still loveth;

He will wipe away thy every tear.
