Poem

Mary Baker Eddy

MARY BEECHER LONGYEAR

Unnumbered thousands, under God's bright skiesThat glisten nightly, since the shepherds sawThe heavens illumed, and kneeling heard with aweThe angel's song,—unnumbered thousands riseOn earth to-day with happy fearless mien,In stately churches crowned with marble domes,In little scattered hamlets, simple homes,As witnesses to light from heaven seen.
Poem

From Conquering hate, enthroning peace

Love's triumph over hate

How can we love when others hate? Prayerful turning to God, divine Love, with the earnest desire to express His qualities under all circumstances will give us strength and ability to do right.

TALK not of the past With its hopes and its fears, Its joys and its sorrow,— There are no vanished years, The good still remaineth; Though strange it may seem, That which we call past Is only a dream.

Love's Shining
