SHARING

I made complaint to God:"You gave me precious seed, but only sandto plant them in! I'll share with friendto whom you gave a richer land!"
If one's own pardon one has grace to win,God's gift, reflection, glow where sense had been;A brother's lark of hope and faith, on wing,Might rise and rise, and thence more bravely sing.

PEACEMAKERS

I am, he is, thou art;In every land in every tongueThis is the way we startTo claim our being—in the present.

WITNESS FOR TRUTH

Visualizea lofty hall,a judgment seatmagistrate imperially robeddespite irregularities ofaccusation and hour.

"IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE WORD"

God's law is felt in rhythm of the seasons:Spring, summer, autumn, winter.

INTACT

No mortal dreamCan change the factThat God createdMan intact.

THE MEASURE

It seemed a thousand years, yet, in Thy sightThe measure was the watch within the night,Exalting vigils kept, until the day,Defined by light.
