Love's Recompense

Be not discouraged! Love divine,The sun of peace, will surely shineUpon your life, and bring the restWhich work well done at Love's behestMust always bring.

Love

How deep Love is!So deep that if brother's grief or sinShould seem unfathomed,Love's depth would fold him inThe everlasting arms thatUnderneath are strongly tender.

A Hymn of Peace

O Life! whene'er we turn to Thee, We feel Thy touch; our thoughts with newness fill; Oh, may our waiting hearts uplifted be, To know the calmness of the "Peace, be still"! O Truth! Thy voice is ever near, Speaking where doubt and darkness seem to reign.
