Sonnet: Aligning With God
Let every suff’ring make me better Lord,
Let every problem closer to Thee bring;
Let every tussle keep to Thine accord;
Let every struggle make me love Thee, sing!
Let every strife, more purify my mind;
Let every passion give my heart relief;
Let every anguish, peace of mind sure find;
Let every labor lessen my heart’s grief.
Let every hurdle encourage my aim;
Let every hardship make my body strong;
Let every defeat add succor, not blame;
Let every challenge teach to avoid wrong.
Let every failure make me to Thee pray!
Let every success happen in thine way.
