Additional quotes by Frances Ridley Havergal

I take this pain, Lord Jesus,
From Thine own hand; The strength to bear it bravely Thou wilt command. I am too weak for effort, So let me rest, In hush of sweet submission On Thine own breast.

Teach us, Master, how to give
All we have and are to Thee;
Grant us, Saviour, while we live,
Wholly, only Thine to be.

....We write our lives indeed, But in a cipher none can read, Except the author
