The great leveler

KEVIN JOHN McGRATH

Fear disappears in the presence of joy's firepower.

David knew this when, as a youth,
He drew five smooth stones from the rip
pl
ing

Brook of rugged joy,
And hastening,
Felled the fearsome champion Goliath to oblivion.

Joy,
Undisturbed, cherished, and gratefully maintained,
Is the priceless pearl of Principle,
The almighty rock of almighty Love,
Thunder in the unfisting hand of God.
