The Constancy of Christ

Lo, life goes on.

The Fields of Bow

Broad, rock-terraced fields of Bow,Spread with rugs of springlike hue,Held close in heaven's arch of blue,No fairer place dear God doth showTo all earth's wondering pilgrim eyesThat, weeping, search for hidden goodOn breezy crag, in forest's wood;Heaven's own path within you lies.

Healing

Long had seemed the seekingFor peace and perfect health;The care and pain still lingered,Midst others' joy and wealth.

WEARY , while miles stretch before me,Fagged by the long way I've trod,I hear, ever nearer and sweeter:Be still, and know I am thy God.

Love's Guidance

AT night the listening shepherdsHeard the tidings, glad and clear;And at night the watching wise menSaw the guiding star appear.

We may not pray for easiness,But for that vigor prayThat manifests trustworthinessAnd moral bravery.
