Permanence and Praise

Infinite Spirit! unceasingly breathingBlessings unmeasured on all, as on me,Thy peace like a river,In tenderness ever,Meets fully the need of the earnest heart's plea,My thought now adoring,Its praise is outpouringIn anthems of love, that I'm ever with Thee.

The Beauty of Holiness

Oh , worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness,     Wholly apart from sin;Wholly one with the heavenly throng,Conscious of the peaceful song     Of angel thoughts within.

Our Blessings

Our blessings should be sought, not claimed,—Cherished, not watched with jealous eye;Love is too precious to be named,Save with a reverence deep and high

Obedience

Obey! Obedience is the lawOf Life eternal,For only thus is opened upThe way supernal;In Life is harmony and health,And God's perfectionMust by His law be ever foundIn His reflection.

The Course of the Day

Above the earth hangs heavily night's mist,Yet as in hope I watch the eastern sky,Faintly the light gleams through the lessening gloom,Telling the waiting world that day is nigh.

Just a Kind Word

Only a pleasant word a stranger spoke to me,Just one kind word along the path of life,So brightened up the day that I forgot the night;A ray of hope appeared 'mind toil and strife.

The New Century

Thou God-crowned, patient Century!Thine hour hath come.

The Song of the Century

Lift up your hearts, ye sons of men,And catch a sweet refrain—The low farewell of a centuryBreathing a low sweet lullabyA surcease from all pain.
