A Thanksgiving Testimony

MAUDE M. CLARKE

O God, accept our sacrifice of praise
Continually, and may we ever give Thee thanks
For this: That Thou didst send
Thy well beloved Son
To show the way.

How long we struggled in the dark
To see the way,
Till Thou didst send another
Pure and holy as Thy Son,
And fittingly she bore the name of Mary.
The fragrance of her life is wafted o'er the world,
And through the clearness of her vision
Light has come—
A light that casts no shadow—
Christian Science.
For this, O God, we give Thee thanks continually.
