Peace

O SILENT Father! How I once did longFor quiet places where the clashing hasteOf men had never dinned; where hills reached upTo touch the cooling sky, the cattle lowedDistant, in calming, muffled tones; where sangThe thrushes with their single, mellow note,And grasses humbly whispered in the winds!

Omnipresence

BEYOND the border of Thy lawI cannot be;For who hath power to stray beyondInfinity?

Inspiration

It comes to me on singing windsAcross the shining, eager sea:It speaks of Truth's omnipotence,Of Love and immortality.

When doubt besets me, then I sing;When fear assails me, then I clingTo God as omnipresent good;And His great presence, understood,Has never failed in calm to bringThe comfort of His shielding wing.

A Song of Gratitude

Dear Lord, I thank Thee that I did not getAn answer to my prayer of long ago.

"A beam in darkness"

Fan bright the spark of holy flameThat in the dark so gemlike gleams,Dispelling with its tiny beamsAll thoughts that bring the gloom of shame.

Desire

When morning's radiant splendors glowAbout the day's bright eastern door,My thought ascends in plea to knowHow I may praise Thee more.

Reflecting Good

We know Thy Word to-day;Forever freeThy purpose we fulfill,Thy truth we see.
