You taught me Waiting with Myself
You taught me Waiting with Myself
Appointment strictly kept
You taught me fortitude of Fate
This also I have learnt
An Altitude of Death, that could
No bitterer debar
Than Life had done before it
Yet there is a Science more
The Heaven you know to understand
That you be not ashamed
Of Me in Christ’s bright Audience
Upon the further Hand
