A SONG OF BETHLEHEM

A village humble, still,The guiding star above;A shepherd on a hill,The mother-heart of love;The child of truth and grace,A world to pacify;An angel song of praise,And God to glorify.

A SIMPLE TRUTH

God is the source of every healing thought.

SYMPHONY

The music of the spheres is heardAs thought is stilled,And all the pathways of the mindBy Love are filled.

A LIVING FAITH

With childlike faithI take God's hand;With trustful heartAnd prayerful thoughtI listen and obey;The path is shown,The light springs forthThat leads the wayTo light of day.
