Stand!

MABEL CONE BUSHNELL

To stand and know He leads,Though we cannot see the way;To stand through storm and stress,When darkness dims the day;When fear seeks to appall,And doubt to enter in;When hatred would enthrall,To simply stand with Him.

The Heritage

MARION SUSAN CAMPBELL

O God, who gave such gifts to me,—Unending life and truth,—that I,Reflecting Thy eternal Mind,Might of Thy goodness testify;Who love unchanging did bestowThat I might all Thy creatures bless;Who gave me courage, health, and joy,Wisdom and strength and loveliness;Who while I closed my troubled eyes,Hast like a tender mother smiledAnd poured Thy blessings at my feet—Pardon a most ungrateful child!No more I stand in stubborn doubt,Heir of such wealth from endless age,I will reach forth my hands and takeThis fair and goodly heritage.

Our Task

FREDERICK STARR CAMPBELL

The sculptor, hewing from the shapeless rockEach fragment foreign to his pattern fair,Transforming with deft touch the stubborn block,Or ringing blow, works only to lay bareWhat long the granite's heart held unrevealed.
