At Rest

On twig and bough,In tiny nest,Each little birdIs safe at rest,Love's watchful eye beholding.

Inward Life

O'er broad white fields the gusty North Wind blewAgainst the beeches iron-limbed and gray,And hurled its darts, and snowy mounds upthrew;Nor yet one fluttering banner took away.

Her Birthday

Every day is your birthday, dear;Every day in all the yearThe loving Father gives to youBirthday gifts all fresh and new:Joyous life that cannot cease,Blessed truth that bringeth peace,Love that doth all good increase.

He is Risen!

In the shining, heavenward wayWhite-robed lilies bloom to-day,Waxen petals, full of grace,Bear the message now we trace,He is Risen!

An Easter Carol

Open wide the eastward windowsTo the Resurrection morn;Hearken to the deep thought-musicIn the rose-pearl silence born.

And can I lack?

Christ, Come Again

It is true, then, that Thou dost comeAs in that age, remote and past,When stormy seas and strident blastWere trodden down and driven dumb?

Love's Guidance

My shepherd is the King most high; My every want He doth supply,

Springtide in the Heart

In silence tender, magic, deft,The hand of Love transforms the earth,'Till not a barren twig is leftTo mar the joys of life's new birth.

Radiance

My star is shining, shining, shining!The sweet, white joy that smiled on meThrough many a brent and thorny path,An arc of braver minstrelsy,And wider wings of radiance, hath.

So Shall the Sun of Righteousness Arise

A Tender flash eastern sky.
