Humility's Fruition

SARAH V. CORNELIUS

How sweet to know that Love divine surrounds us;
That we can trust our loved ones to His care,
And, loosing them from mortal thought's false bondage,
Can see them perfect, free, divinely fair.

To know that in the vast unbroken circle
Of Love, where dwells God's image, perfect man,
There is no place for sin, disease, disaster,
For these are not included in God's plan.

Father, "I can of mine own self do nothing,"
In humble self-forgetfulness, we pray;
The power is Thine, O God. Then sudden round us
Shines the full glory of the night turned day.

Behind each heaven-sent word of Truth we utter
Is the full power and force of God revealed;
And with a calm unfaltering assurance
We can, in God's name, say, Now art thou healed!
