Poems

Oneness

If I take the wings of the morningand dwell in the depths of the sea,Even there shall God's hand hold me,And His love shall follow me.

"Keep the door of my lips"

Oh , let me keep a faithful watchUpon my lips todayAnd bear true testimonyIn everything I say.

"Life more than meat"

"Butter and honey shall he eat"—But none wrote that for forty days,While men sit in the scorners seat.

Out of the snareOf grief and sorrow and crying,Our soul is escapedAs a bird rises,Strong-winged and free.

It makes no difference in what landOr clime I seek my way.

Power to Save

When mortal sense would boldly sayThat evil claims to be,Be still and listen, watch and pray;His Word goes forth to free.

The Spirit of Easter

I can arise.

The Angel at Golgotha

Help us to see, Lord, help us,As the women saw at the cross,That the Christ is risen;There is no loss.

Love's Power

Love gave to blind and deaf their sight and hearing:At midnight hour it set the prisoners free:Restored the cripple at the pool Bethesda;Forgave the dying thief upon the tree.

Like John

When sense would claim a loved one crucified,Help me to rise to purest love, my thoughtFreed of possession and of fear, to standLike John in confidence beside the cross—My faith so strong, acknowledging the real,Yielding this human love to the divine.

The Reader Prays

Dear God, this is a sacred, selfless hour.
