Grace for Today

WILLIAM D. HERSEY

Give me to know this day the power of Love
To lift each thought and deed so far above
The human striving fraught with fear of loss
That I may find the gold and lose the dross,
The pride, the hate, that are no part of man.
So, seeking truth, we glimpse God's perfect plan,
And all who worship Him through righteous prayer
Shall feel His gracious power everywhere.
