"IN THE SECRET OF HIS TABERNACLE"

Psalm 27

Mary Lucretia Barker Franklin

Salvation leaves no room for fear or dread,
For light and strength are his who trusts the Lord
And knows that He will do what He has said:
Reveal His dwelling place of sweet accord.
Within His temple is no war, no time;
His beauty fills it with unchanging joy,
And praise and wisdom will forever chime
In His pavilion, which none can destroy.
God's tabernacle breathes Life-giving song,
With sacrifice of Love transcending ties
Of flesh in human birth and death, and strong
And clear its music sweeps away all lies.
Eternal Parent, heritage divine,
Because I live in Thee, all good is mine.

Mary Lucretia Barker Franklin
