"The song of Christian Science" *

HATTIE JOHNSON BONNELL

"The song of Christian Science"!
How it rises!
Higher, higher;
Sweeter, clearer! Far and near!
It is, "Work—work—work—watch and pray."

"The song of Christian Science"!
Have you, loved one,
Heard this wondrous
Song of gladness, song of praise?
It is, "Work—work—work—watch and pray."

"The song of Christian Science"!
It will reach you;
Yes, and lead you
Safely to your Father's door!
It is, "Work—work—work—watch and pray."

"The song of Christian Science"!
It will heal you;
It will hearten;
It will make you quite anew!
It is, "Work—work—work—watch and pray."

"The song of Christian Science"!
Nations, hearken!
Peace you strive for
Is within you,—gift of Life!
It is, "Work—work—work—watch and pray."

"The song of Christian Science"!
Not a new song,
But a true song,
And a love song, sung for you!
It is, "Work—work—work—watch and pray."
