Poems

Peace

When darkening shadows rest upon my heartAnd subtly vex me and confuse my day,I know the light of Truth is where Thou art;And seeking Thee, I find my peaceful way.

The Song of Angels

Have ye heard the song of angelsAs ye listened in the peaceAnd the quiet of the eveningWhen the strife and tumult cease?

Liberty

When earth-born shadows fade awayAnd good alone I see—God's will is mine, and I obeyThe truth that makes men free:

Courage

Bridle every vain excuse,Plead not age nor youth;Use what lies within your hand,Grasp the sword of Truth!

Unfoldment

I tried to reach, to talk with God,Yesterday, yesterday;I knelt upon a hill's damp sod,And all my lips could sayWas: I have pain, and I have woe;'Gainst sin I long have fought.

Love the Provider

Come, thankful heart, God's near and dearAnd faithful care adore!Let joy too at the feast appear,In radiant thought hold bright and clearLove's ever present store.

Gratitude

I thank Thee, God, that Thou art Life,And that I live in Thee;For as I see this, I shall haveLife more abundantly.

Lessons from the Flowers

How oft in memory we turnTo that bright morning long ago,When Jesus spoke to yearning hearts,And taught them God's dear care to know.

Obedience

Life calls me to awake, whilst I would sleeping lie;Truth bids me work, for joyous tasks are nigh;Love whispers: These thy brothers, every passer-by;Life, Truth, and Love obeyed, all needs supply.

A Supplication

O God, with humble heart I Thee beseech,Guard Thou my every thought, my deeds, my speech;Help me to think Thy thoughts, to do Thy will—To heed Thy sweet, assuring: Peace, be still!

O Still Small Voice!

O still small voice that came in stillness of the Horeb height,That hushed to silence earthquake, wind, and flame,Come whisper now, that we forget the hour of shameful flight,When evil menaced him who loved Thy name!
