Show Beware. O friend, , when doubts assail thy mind. When dark the way before, Remember to be doubly kind To those of leaser store If they believe, what'er it be. Try not to prove it wrong, Think how their love has made them free, Their faith has made them atrongi And thinking thus how others fare, Upheld by simple creeds. Of thine own unbelief beware Lest it shall curb thy deeds. For better 'tis to wish life well, To help each brother man, Than to dispute o'er heaven or hell. Or frame a better plan. We do not know, we can not tell. The way that lies ahead, Not one who knows- futurity, . Not one by wisdom led, The humblest faith may far outreach Proud reason's highest call. And In its gentle service teaeh, To love is best of all. Charles W. Stevenson. |
