Amy Carmichael - Quote

"Not in vain the tedious toil
On an unresponsive soil, 
Travail, tears in secret shed
Over hope that lay as dead.
All in vain, thy faint heart cries,
Not in vain, thy Lord replies; 
Nothing is too good to be;
Then believe, believe to see."

- from Amy Carmichael in Toward Jerusalem
