Trust Him in the common night;
Trust Him in the awesome night;
Trust Him when the earth doth quake;
Trust Him when thy heart doth ache;
Trust Him when thy brain doth reel
And thy friend turns on his heel;
Trust Him when the way is rough,
Cry not yet, “It is enough!”
But obey with true endeavour,
Else the salt hath lost his savour.
We have but one thing to do in any circumstances – to obey Christ. We have nothing to do with the question of wisdom or unwisdom. Peter thought he knew all about fishing, but when his Master bade him cast the net at a certain point, though he thought nothing would come of it, his reply was: “At thy word I will.”
