I hear the upward run

of sweet-sap springtime.

The night is full of the soundof tinny transistorsplayed in the dark by the lonelywho lie in their beds, sleepless and sad,seeking comfort in quizzesand pop and a friendly voicerecounting the dire, the deadlynews of the worldas it spins to another dilatory dawn.

Eternity now

Just now.

I rest today in green pastures,trusting my Shepherd,loving His way,knowing He keeps me with Him today.

Very early in the morning the first day of the week,they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.

As we extend our prayingto earth's remotest place,As we see God's imagein every face,As we spread caring loveto every race,We will rejoice to seeTruth's holy face.
