HIDING IN THY PRESENCE

Hiding in Thy presence,In the secret place,I am free.

MY NEED

A simple trust, forever undismayed;Courage to face tomorrows unafraid;Wisdom to choose the better part each day,Though cloud or discord seems to cross my way!Dear Father-Mother, well I know my needFor all of these, and also I should pleadFor greater kindliness, a loving heart,A willingness to do my rightful partIn any work for Thee; I need to seeMy brother man as upright, sinless, free.

ASSURANCE

There is one morning moment when the night,Lingering in the shadows, seems intentOn tracing patterns even in the light,As though the powers of darkness were unspent.

GIVING

Inexhaustible our substanceSprings from the eternal fount:No depletion binds reflection.

WHO WAITS ON GOD

Sometimes it may seem hard to wait,But here are lessons all may prove.

OUR READING ROOM

To this place, dear loving Father,Lead the thirsty ones today;Here to quaff the healing waters,And in grateful silence pray.

GOD LOOKS UPON THE HEART

God said,"I have provided me a king among the sons of Jesse.

RABBONI!

Could we call him Master, had he said,As he turned to the living from the dead,"Why have ye called me from afar?

BEFORE THEY CALL

I will answer before My children call,So God has said.
