Peace Is Mine

GRACE M. PARKER

Before Truth came, my heart knew naught but sadness;
Until I learned of Love, my world was drear.
But now into my life is woven gladness,
And peace is mine, for God is ever near.
I did not know the birds could sing so sweetly,
I did not know the flowers could bloom so rare;
But since Truth came to fill my life completely,
The light of Love divine is everywhere.

Without this Love the world would lose its brightness;
Without this light the sky would seem so gray;
Without this Truth to give my heart its lightness
The night would never turn into the day.
When erring thought would change my right endeavor,
I turn to God and find sustaining rest;
Divine Love doth indeed endure forever,
And I rejoice, for I am truly blest.
