Dwelling in Light

MARIAN J. COBB

Where Egypt's proud, heart-hardened king held sway,Refusing to accede to God's demand,It is recorded that thick darkness layFull three days' space, enveloping the land;On all the sons of Egypt blackness fell,But Israel, God's chosen, felt no night,Nor any plague—for as the Scriptures tell,Within their dwelling places there was light!
