Waiting

by George MacDonald

From Standard Ebooks · standardebooks/george-macdonald_poetry

Lie, Little Cow, and Chew Thy Cud
Lie, little cow, and chew thy cud, The farmer soon will shift thy tether; Chirp, linnet, on the frozen mud, Sun and song will come together; Wait, soul, for God, and thou shalt bud, He waits thy waiting with his weather.
