I sought by human will one dayTo walk the path in my own way,But wisdom bade me pause and waitFor Mind's unfailing light to guideMe in the narrow way and straightWith Love's own presence at my side.

GOD'S GIFT

We seemed to live within a crumbling worldWhere honest work brought no abiding gainAnd where, adventuring, all our schemes were hurledAs dust to dust—our labor spent in vain.
