Hymn 291*

Quiet, Lord, my froward heart,Make me gentle, pure, and mild,Upright, simple, free from art;Make me as a little child,From distrust and envy free,Pleased with all that pleaseth Thee.

Holding hands

"Hold my hand," said Daddyas he and daughter crossed a brookon wet and slippery stones.

Holy ground

O empty cup,O smiling promise,concealing that lie—"good for food,""pleasant to the eyes,""desired to make one wise.

Fulfillment

The star climbs the night,poises angelic haloabove Bethlehem.

Christmas Eve

Late at night, and I contemplate the star,As the three did then.

The man of peace

No! Don't react,Bristle,Snap back,Or judge!

Star time

Shadows of darkness may claim their illusion,Claim that night heightens a false sense of fear.
Jigsaw pieces of patriarchs and prophetsFall into place.
Each new way we see to love and healBuilds upon the lessons learned before.
