Poem read from a Sermon on July 23, 1933

This poem expresses the thoughts of J. Frank Norris on the many occasions of his dark moments during his ministry.


"Though nature's strengh decay,
And death and hell withstand,
To Canaan's bounds urge my way,
At his commands:
The watery deep I pass,
With Jesus in my view,
And through the howling wilderness
My way pursue.

There dwells the Lord our King,
The Lord our Righteousness,
Triumphant o'er the world and sin,
The Prince of peace,
On Zion's sacred height.
His kingdom still maintains,
And, glorious with His saints in light,
Forever reigns."
