[Written for the Sentinel]

Harmony

LAURA GERAHTY

Oh, for a broader love, that clasps a while
Both friend and seeming enemy in one embrace;
That sees the true reflection of God's smile
'Neath earth's cold frown in every brother's face!

Oh, for a deeper hope, whose anchors lie
Not on the shallow ground or shifting sand,
That, passing fortune's fickle favors by,
Leaves all within the hollow of His hand!

Oh, for a purer faith, that steadfast stands
'Mid mortal threats and life-long honored fears;
That holds the lamp of life, though death commands
Obeisance to its will of grief and tears!
