Poems

Compassion

He was the friend of publicans and sinners,He walked among the lowly and the meek;He healed the lepers in their unclean raiment,He to the outcast loving words did speak.

All-sufficient

Dear Mother-Love, so infinitely tender,Guiding, protecting, all along the way;No cause have we to doubt Thy loving presence,No fear that we need ever go astray.

From Church

The demand for church

I like to think of each church that grows up in a community as that community's answered prayer for the presence of the saving Christ—the message of God's love for humanity.

Humility's Fruition

How sweet to know that Love divine surrounds us;That we can trust our loved ones to His care,And, loosing them from mortal thought's false bondage,Can see them perfect, free, divinely fair.

Nathanael of Galilee

Nathanael —Thou of Galilee,In meditation wondrous sweet,Did angels come to thee,And with message so divine,That thou its import sought to know?

Incentive

In love for God and man, we find incentive trueTo heal and save; burdens to lift;To see beyond the pale of mortal ken, and lookWithin the veil, where, Love-enshrined,The child of God is seen, all pure and undefiled,All holy, gentle, Christlike, fair,Till what's unlike the Father fades,—becomes a myth,Illusion, phantom, fantasy,Mist-woven by vain mortal thoughts.

Awake

Evil has no place, no power.

The Eternal Now

This is God's day; the round of timeNo Sabbath brings to thee.

Communion

He who has supped with Thee may never more be fed,Except Thou at the table sit and break the bread.

Confidence

To-Day for me there is no strife, No fear some need may be unmet;But there is love and peace and joy For healings I can ne'er forget.

Faith's Blessing

A hopeless heart, despairing,Sends out a cry for help;The answer comes in Love's own way,—The Love that never fails.

Spirit is Substance

Spirit is substance; dwelling in light,God knows nor discord, sorrow, nor night.
