Hymn Of Trust Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAB CBCB DBDB EBEB

O Love Divine that stooped to shareA
Our sharpest pang our bitterest tearA
On Thee we cast each earth born careA
We smile at pain while Thou art nearB
-
Though long the weary way we treadC
And sorrow crown each lingering yearB
No path we shun no darkness dreadC
Our hearts still whispering Thou art nearB
-
When drooping pleasure turns to griefD
And trembling faith is changed to fearB
The murmuring wind the quivering leafD
Shall softly tell us Thou art nearB
-
On Thee we fling our burdening woeE
O Love Divine forever dearB
Content to suffer while we knowE
Living and dying Thou art nearB

Oliver Wendell Holmes
