Sermon in a Hymn:
“Trust Him when dark doubts assail thee, Trust Him when thy strength is small, Trust Him when to simply trust Him Seems the hardest thing of all. Trust Him; He is ever faithful, Trust Him, for His will is best, Trust Him, for the heart of Jesus Is the only place of rest.”
Lucy A Bennett, 1850-1927
