Quotes[edit]

  • Blest is my lot whate'er befall;
    What can disturb me, who appall,
    While, as my strength, my rock, my all,
    Saviour! I cling to Thee?
    • Reported in Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), p. 101.
  • Just as I am — Thou wilt receive,
    Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;
    Because Thy promise I believe,
    O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
    • Reported in Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), p. 231.
  • Renew my will from day to day,
    Blend it with Thine, and take away
    All that now makes it hard to say,
    "Thy will be done."
    • Reported in Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), p. 615.
