Amy Carmichael’s Poem

Dave recently got me Amy Carmichael’s Edges of His Ways Daily Devotional.  I love the poem in today’s message:

For love, brave love that ventureth,
For love that faileth not, I come;
For love that never wearieth,
Nor findeth burdens burdensome.

I come for hope that springeth green,
And burneth steadfast like a star;
For Faith that pierceth through the seen
To things eternal, things that are.
...

O Love, that lightenest, all my ways,
Within, without, below, above -
Flow through the minutes of my days;
The sum of all my life be love.

Amen, Amy Carmichael. I love this poem.
