By Faith Alone

From whom do blessings really flow?
From out of coffers here below?
From whence did all these coffers fill?
If not by God's e'er faithful Will?

So all of us must do His work.
Yet, if by some mysterious quirck
Some one of us has lost the Way,
For that lost brother, kneel and pray!

But, not for gain of others' thought,
For Grace of God cannot be brought.
But for an inner life with Him,
Which now to us may yet seem dim.
