GOD GIVES US STRENGTH

God gives us strengthTo start each day anew,To gain a higher view,With hearts that long to blessIn acts of tenderness.

OUR FIRST AID

God is our first and surest aid.

LAW OF LOVE

So much to meet, I used to say,As error sentenced me each day.

LOVE IS IMPARTIAL

We cannot wish withheld from our worst foeA single blessing we ourselves would know,If we would pray aright.

MORNING PRAYER

I greet the day, knowing that all of goodIs mine to know and to be understood.
