Tears

HAZEL HARPER HARRIS

Tears when in deep self-pity shedWill dim the sunlight overhead,But songs of gratitude will bringA vision cleared of envying,Where clouds of discontent give wayThat there may shine a tearless day.

Your Light So Shines

JOY BENNETT

I Wish that I could write my thought of youIn lovely music ringing pure and true;Or that my vision, faithfully expressedIn words and phrases beautifully dressed,Might paint a picture so that all could seeAnd share the lovely thoughts that come to me,Of one whose light shines out so valiantly,In spite of threatening clouds of storm and stress,That those whose way seems dark may pause and seeReflected love, that seeks to heal and bless;Of one whose open hand and heart would giveUnstintingly and eagerly their all;Receiving gratefully, striving to liveHumble, alert, obedient to God's call.
