Poem by Grace E. Troy - What Does it Matter?

What does it matter –- unlearned tho I be
In earth’s knowledge that passeth away –-
Since I have the Wisdom that came from above
For which I had nothing to pay?

What does it matter –- unloved tho I be
By the world and its frivolous throng –
Since I have a Friend -– the Savior Divine
Whose love fills my heart with a song!

What does it matter –- unknown tho I be
In annals of mere mortal man -–
Since God is my Father and knew me by name
Before this creation began.

Tho poor, I am rich,  I’ve a mansion on high
Unknown -– yet well known I shall be,
Unloved –- yet so loved by the Savior Divine
He died to redeem even me.
