Poems

Undisturbed

When we are glad within, though sense would sayOur world is bleak and all our skies are gray,We surely then have touched the fringe of heaven,And tasted joys that Spirit, Soul, has given.

Not Missing

Dear one, lose not your faith and joy,For he is God's own child—that boyCounted as missing.

The demand for church

I like to think of each church that grows up in a community as that community's answered prayer for the presence of the saving Christ—the message of God's love for humanity.

One Simple Prayer

Oh, I have learned the joy it is to walkWith Love divine and let the dear Christ talk;To listen, ere I take my outlined way,And know Mind leads me each unfolding day.

How Great Is That Beauty!

How great is that beauty, the beauty of Mind,Each thought ever loving, its law always kind.

Prayer is a temple,A quiet place where I may goFor rest and peace.

Peter, that tormented nightBy the black Tiberian Sea,Grieved that no more in his sightLived the Master's ministry.

Reach Out

Dear one, be still and knowThe day is but begun;Sorrow and despairCannot be written there.

Understanding

Dear Father, give me here and nowAn understanding heart,That in this world of conflict IMay learn to do my part,

Standing on the Promises

It is not love unto our God,Nor to a brother, friend,To see as real, and having power,As growing stronger every hour,The evils that portend.

Sacrifice

To lay my earthly all upon the altar—This sacrifice seemed more than I could bear,Until I thought of Abraham and IsaacAnd of our heavenly Father's tender care.
Sometimes we hesitateTo say the word or give the smileThat flows from our heart's overflowOf good, and as we handleCarelessly the while the gift of giving.

Leaving Idols

Jesus said, "Follow me,"And straightway then they left their nets and followed him.
