AGNES FLORIDA CHALMERS.

I thank Thee that Love's kingdom is at hand;
Yea, that all good is here, O Truth divine;
That health and peace are now at my command;
And that the Father's riches, too, are mine.
I am so thankful that earth's brotherhood
Is one, and that God's law is understood.
I thank Thee that Love's gifts are all for me;
And yet I know true gratitude must be
Expressed in giving all to Thine and Thee.

Father, I thank Thee for this work I do,
And that I must prove faithful to each new
And untried task. With Truth's strong armor on,
Rejoicing that Mind's victory is won,
I thank Thee; but true gratitude must be
Expressed in working more for Thine and Thee.

I thank Thee that I may become again,
Through Truth, a little child, who prays to speak
The healing words of Love that cause nor pain,
Nor bitter anguish to the worn and weak.
I thank Thee; but true gratitude must be,
Father, expressed through love for Thine and Thee.

I thank Thee that I bear no more the cross
Of loneliness; and that my home is now
The secret place of the most High, since Thou
Art with me; and that I feel no loss
At human failure or elusive gain.
Blest Truth, I know not now the sting and pain
Of friends whose thoughts are turned away from me.
I thank Thee that I am, O Love divine,
So satisfied, since Thy sweet ties now bind
Me close to Thee; this gratitude of mine
Must be expressed through friendship for mankind.

I thank Thee most of all that I now know
My home and church and consciousness are one;
Yea, that Love's universe, where'er I go,
Established is, since God's work now is done.
Father, at every glimpse of Truth I see,
I thank Thee for my union now with Thee.
