Classic Poem

I ASK no more that I may know
The way God has for me,
I only care that He shall show
My duty momently,

At first I sought with restless mind
To know the entire way,
But now I am content to find
My path from day to day.

I am not idle, for it seems
That much on me depends,
But failing all my fondest dreams
I take what Heaven sends;

Not always gladly, but resigned,
I wait the Father's will,
Believing that though I am blind
He walks beside me still.
