Awakening

ALAN W. THWAITES

I awake from dreams of sense,Wake with dawning in my eyes,As in thought the vision breaks—Man is never one who dies,Compassed in a meager span,But a living, changeless ray,Perfect, born of Spirit's will,Shining in eternal day.

This Is Our Church

Harriette Meldrim

Like a medieval fugitive from wrong,Who fled before his wicked enemyAnd found the church a sanctuary strong,Wherein to claim impregnability,So in this structure pure of Truth and LoveWe find our refuge from pursuing foes,A sanctuary safe, and high aboveThe fear and doubt and pain that would imposeTheir tyrant rule upon us.
