Still, still with Thee, when purple morning breaketh, When the bird waketh, and the shadows flee; Fairer than morning, lovelier than the daylight, Dawns the sweet consciousness,—I am with Thee.

H. B. Stowe Quote
“Between the mysteries of death and life Thou standest, loving, guiding,—not explaining; We ask, and Thou art silent,—yet we gaze, And our charmed hearts forget their drear complaining; No crushing fate, no stony destiny! Thou Lamb that hast been slain, we rest in Thee.”
