Poem

Our Human Concept

EMILY PATTERSON SPEAR

Our human concept of this earthborn lifeIs so intrenched within our every thought,So fortified by error's daily strife,So carelessly and yet so deeply fraughtWith trivial things that only turn our praiseAway from truth and love and liberty,We do not see the lighted lamp of Love,We do not feel the urge of Spirit's claim,We have not learned the righteous way to proveThe unreality of mortal aim.

"The Lord shall rise"

LAURA BROWN CROWELL

The Lord shall rise as at Mount Perazim,That nations may behold His mighty power;The plowman plows his furrows deep and trimBefore the seed is sown which yields the flour;Then must the wheat be ground, the chaff destroyed,Before the flour is kneaded into bread.
