I am trying to find a copy of a book of poems by Helen Steiner Rice - It has a picture of the Praying Hands on the front. Think it was published around 40-45 years ago?

The End Of The Road Is But A Bend In The Road


by Helen Steiner Rice
When we feel we have nothing left to give
And we are sure that the "song has ended"--
When our day seems over and the shadows fall
And the darkness of night has descended,

Where can we go to find the strength
To valiantly keep on trying,
Where can we find the hand that will dry
The tears that the heart is crying--

There's but one place to go and that is to God
And, dropping all pretense and pride,
We can pour out our problem without restraint
And gain strength with Him at our side--

And together we stand at life's crossroads
And view what we think is the end,
But God has a much bigger vision
And he tells us it's only a bend--

For the road goes on and is smoother,
And the "pause in the song" is a "rest,"
And the part that's unsung and unfinished
Is the sweetest and richest and best--

So rest and relax and grow stronger,
Let go and let God share your load,
Your work is not finished or ended,
You've just come to "a bend in the road."

I have a copy of this book - I received it as a gift many years ago from a teacher of mine. If you are looking for anything specific I will happily email you a copy of it. Let me know! I did do a search for it in various online bookstores but cannot seem to find it - not sure if it is still in print or not.

Hi Mary

Thanks for replying. There's a particular verse with the line "The end of the road, is but a bend in the road" Not sure if that's the title or not. Would love if you could email a copy of that particular one. Thanks Lorraine

 

Mary

That is absolutely the one. Thank you so much
