MARY MAGDALENE

Weeping, yes, but following on,Mary stayed, though many had gone;She followed even to the cross,Her heart protesting bitter loss.

AWAKENING

Mind destroys all subtle seemings,Wakes us from our idle dreamings,Blesses the most humble reachingFor the truth of Jesus' teaching.

SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHER

God , give me joy to welcome allAnd greater strength than hardest rock;A breastplate of unwavering patience,And faith when error tries to mock.

ONE REALITY

The light of day may seem obscure,The prospect dark, no step secure;But through all time the rugged wayIs lit by Love's eternal ray.

UNSELFED

We justify ourselves, and then we findThat what we justify is mortal mind,The ugly thing we do not want at all.

REVELATION

I asked myself the questionWhy trouble seemed to abound.

"THE BABE WE ARE TO CHERISH"

Like Hagar, doubting and downcastWhen fount of hope seems spent and dried,Would we let fear deplete our trust,And let despair and anguish hideGod's love?

LOVE IS ALWAYS

When God is Love—And "when" is ever, always—Can man be loveless, lonely?

LOVE'S ANSWER

In glad submission, Lord,I looked to TheeAnd, humbled, foundI was made free.

BETHESDA

"Rise," said Jesus.

CHANGE OF HEART 

The heart of Love is always strong and sound:God knows no other heart.
