Poems

Peace

Skies may lower and lightnings flash, The thunders o'er us roll; Truth lifts her promised bow aloft, And thought ascends to Soul.

The Shadows that Attend Us

The shadows that attend usBy ourselves are cast;The sunbeams that befriend us,From the heavens vast,Shine as free gifts to all as long as time shall last.

Love's Work

Ours the sowing and the weeding and the reaping to be done,God's to send His showers of blessing and His warming sun.
Bow down thine ear, O Lord,And hear my humble prayer;I poor and needy am,And ever need thy care.

From Psalm Eighteenth

Above the flooding of the waves God is my great, high tower:My rock, my fortress and defence, In every tempted hour.

KEEP the sunshine shining onIn the Soul.

MY Prayer

I PRAY Thee, Lord, bring to my mindThe consciousness of present Good!Guide thou my erring steps aright!Teach me to live more as I should.

All's Well

As the ship speeds beneath the silent sky,O'er the vast spaces of the moonlit sea,And one lies quiet, listening dreamily,How sweet it is to hear watchman's cry:"All's well—the lights are burning bright!"And then to sleep in safety thro' the night.

Angels

We look not for the angels o'er the riverCircling in changless brightness round the Throne.

Abiding

Abide with me! Fast breaks the morning Light,Our day-star rises, banishing all night;Thou art our strength, oh Truth that maketh free!We would unfailingly abide in Thee.

Hope

Does the path seem dark and dreary,Limitless the reign of night?
