The demand for church

Bethlehem Night

The beauty that prevailed one nightIn starlit BethlehemWas wrought no man's mortal will,By artifice or gem.

Wise Men, Awake!

Pierce through the darkness, star of Bethlehem!Scatter this cloud of apathy and gloom,For there are many hearts would give Christ room,Except the darkness is too great for them.

Holy Peace

Within the quiet of today,In one uplifted hour,Enfolded in the consciousnessOf Love's omniscient power,A peace is mine, a holy peace,Wherein I am awareOf being in the "secret place,"Sanctified by prayer.

Feed My Sheep

Do you love your Master, Simon?

Perfection

Perfection or suggestion—Which shall be real to me?

And This Is True

And this is true:God loves both you and me.
