BE NOT DISTRESSED

Be not distressedOr shocked by mortal evidence,But unimpressed,As Jesus was.

CONSECRATION

Subjugate the rebel will;Trellis every straggling thoughtTo climb the holy hill.

THE NEEDLE'S EYE

Stones that bruise the straying footWe treasure for the lessons taught;Allure of alien, dazzling fruitWe see to be a specious thought.

RESTFULNESS

When, in the closet of the night,We close the door on self,Angels minister thoughts of loveAnd flood the heart with light.

THE OPEN DOOR TO HEALING

Oh , let us lift our thought in gratitudeFor all our heavenly Father's loving-kindness.

SAFE ABIDING

O Tender Father-Mother, Love,forever strong and near at hand,enfolding me and all mankindand teaching us to understandthe goodness of Thy universe,how all-embracing is Thy care!How safe Thy universe from fear,where we live, in eternal Life,in Love's sweet presence, now and here.
