"HOW WONDERFUL!"

Reading edition

He answered all my prayer abundantly, And crowned the work that to His feet I brought, With blessing more than I had asked or thought— A blessing undisguised, and fair, and free. I stood amazed, and whispered, "Can it be That He hath granted all the boon I sought? How wonderful that He for me hath wrought! How wonderful that He hath answered me!" O faithless heart! He said that He would hear And answer thy poor prayer, and He hath heard And proved His promise. Wherefore didst thou fear? Why marvel that thy Lord hath kept His word? More wonderful if He should fail to bless Expectant faith and prayer with good success! —Frances Ridley Havergal.
