Three Gifts

MARY MARGARET SHIPHERD

How true the Father's love must be
To bless with true humility,
Which mantles men with light and might
To help them reach the hallowed height.

How beautiful His love must be
To give enduring harmony—
The Christ within, the pure desires,
The happy hymns of heaven's choirs.

How pure the Father's love must be
To fashion joy, so full, so free,

That all may praise, rejoice, give thanks,
For God's great love eternally.
