Peace

EVELYN MAY SCOTT DUCKETT

Above the ugly din of human strife
There is a stillness, deep and calm and strong,
Pervading all things, tranquil and serene,
The consciousness of Love—and this is peace.

Above the pleasure of a moment's thrill
There is an inspiration pure and free,
A beauty and a gladness that endure,
The consciousness of Soul—and this is joy.

Above the tyranny of mortal might
There is a majesty sublime and grand,
An all-compelling unity with God,
The consciousness of Mind—and this is power.
