GOD CROWNETH THE YEAR

F. Ina Burgess

The beauty and beneficence of Love
Shine like a light on vine and shrub and tree,
On golden grain, rich fruit, and fragrant flowers,
On growth and grace and glad fertility.

With peace and plenty, infinite and sure,
God crowns the seasons of each Soul-filled year,
His pure ideas in man's receptive heart
Replacing false beliefs of lack and fear.

Thus God's man and His universe reflect
The Father's tender, ever-present care
In all the bounty and benevolence
Provided for His children everywhere.
