MAUDE CLARK HOUGH

A little song bird came my way,Once on a sunny summer day,And sang to me of love;But presently the song bird went,And I was filled with discontent,Nor saw blue skies above.

God is Love and Truth and Life

MABEL A. SALT

I know that God is Love and Truth and Life, —     Is All-in-all;I know a list'ning ear can always hear      Love's tender call;And when earth's path seems dark to meTruth guides, if I but lift my eyes to see;And if I listen, watch and work and pray,And strive to walk with God from day to day,I cannot fall; no matter where I goLove is before me all the way, I know.
