Poem
Lord, what a change within us one short hourSpent in thy presence will prevail to make,What heavy burdens from our bosom take,What parched grounds refresh, as with a shower!We kneel, and all around us seems to lower;We rise, and all, the distant and the near,Stands forth in sunny outline, brave and clear;We kneel how weak, we rise how full of power!

How
many of us when we stand in our garden, choked with the weeds of error, instead of going to work to clear out the ground so that the flowers of purity, health, happiness, generosity, peace, and love, may bud and blossom in our consciousness, look over the fence into John Smith's garden, and say, "Oh, John, why in the world don't you weed your garden?

Just where thou art lift up thy voiceAnd sing the song that stirs thy heart;Reach forth thy strong and eager handTo lift, to save, just where thou art.

When I turned to Christian Science for help, I was well-nigh desperate.
Testimony of Healing
I have received so much help through the healing power of God since I began the study of Science and Health, and have had so many proofs of the loving Father's protecting care, that I regard it as a privilege to send my testimony to our dear Sentinel in which I find so many helpful thoughts.
