EACH LIFE
By Susan Coolidge
One small life in God’s great plan,
How futile it seems as the ages roll,
Do what it may, or strive how it can,
To alter the sweep of the infinite
whole!
A single stitch in an endless web,
A drop in the ocean's flow and ebb!
But the pattern is rent where the
stitch is lost.
Or marred where the tangle threads
have crossed;
And each life that fails of its true
intent
Mars the perfect plan that its Maker
meant.
