Let Me Remember

Let me remember the multitude of thy mercies, O God:The many pleasant ways Thy love has brought me,When sense would say 'twas but a desert place;The many wondrous things Thy law has taught meOf Principle and its redeeming grace!Let me recall the depth of consolation,When, after mighty wrestlings through the night,There waited on the mount of revelationA sacred stillness and transfiguring light,Through which was seen Thy changeless love enfoldingThe universe and Thine own image, man,Thy law omnipotent forever holdingEach little one within Thy holy plan.

The Way

There is a path the vulture hath not seen,Nor the fierce lion passed by;And there I go.

Trust

Because I put my trust in Thee, O God,The way has easier grown my feet have trod.

Consecration

From Truth's compelling path shrink not,Nor, having entered, swerve;With every selfish aim forgotAdvance, and nobly serve.

Sincerity

In every thought I cherish, dear Father-Mother Love,In every word I utter, in every way I rove,In every task to me assigned, teach me, O Love, to seeThat man in God's own likeness reflects sincerity.

No Need of Things

Why cling to things?

A Morning Song

A thrush was singing by the seaHis thankful little melodyFor earth's sweet loveliness reborn,For wavelets sparkling in the morn,For pearly drops on springing cornFor snowy bloom on wayside thorn.

Dreams

Frightened of dreams!The little child that shrieksWith terror in a nightmare—haunted sleep—Wakens to find the tender mother-loveEncompassing.
