God Is All

MARTHA ATKINSON THOMAS

Help me to give today from out the storeThat Thou hast given me; help me to soarAbove the sordid things that seem to claim my day;Help me to be about Thy business sweet, to watch and pray;Thy peace apparent in the morning hush, the robin's song,Help me to keep within my heart the whole day long.

Urim and Thummim

MILES BUCKSTON WATTS

For Aaron holy garments did they make,For glory and for beauty, long agoThat, thus enrobed, in deep humilityHe might approach the inmost sanctuary,The secret place beyond the wreathed veil,Within the temple's close-encircling courts—High priest before the altar of the Lord.
