I said to a man who stood at a gate "give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown", and he replied, "go out into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God. That shall be to you better than a light and safer than a known way."
-Minnie Louise Haskins – 1908
The poem was included in the closing moments of the 1940 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer/Frank Borzage film The Mortal Storm, starring Margaret Sullivan, Jimmy Stewart, Robert Young.
