You Cannot Hide from the Light

The world is full of sunshine,Is full and running over;It shines in all the cities,It shines on fields of clover.

Flowers

Mirrors of mornWhence the dewdrop is born,Soft tints of the rainbow and skies—Sisters of song,What a shadowy throngAround you in memory rise!

I prayed, Thy kingdom come! For winter longHad held the frozen earth in fetters bound;And wretchedness and misery, war and wrong,Age after age, did in the world abound.

Trusting

O Weary heart and steps that slowAlong life's pathway come and go,Fear not, the Master trod aloneThe thorn-path leading to a throne.

Out of the Gloom

Out of the gloom of centuries pastThere cometh a day of light;From man-made creed to humanity's needIs the voyage from wrong to right.

The Battle Call

Out to the front, ye tried and true warriors!Out to the front at duty's loud call!Out to the front, where the battle is raging!Out to the front, to arouse one and all!

The Daughter of Jairus

What means this radiance falling round,And through the mist whence comes this sound:"O maid! I say to thee, arise"?

If we Knew

If I knew that a word of mine,A word not kind and true,     Might leave its trace     On a loved one's face,I'd never speak harshly, would you?

The Treasure House

There stands a wondrous Treasure-House,Beside a peace-enfolded sea,Wherein are riches fairer farThan pearls of Ind or Araby.
I SEARCHED long hours for ease from pain,For health and strength to work again,And struggled, too, for ease of mind,A hearty joy in being kind,For love of all that's good and pure,For wealth of thoughts that aye endure,That self might be effaced in me,And all my thoughts for others be,Then quick this promise came, Divine,"All that I have, my son, is thine.
