LIFE SONG

From the February 1975 issue of The Christian Science Journal


What words
shall I use
to sing Your praise,
highest, holiest
One to be adored?

Can human song hope to
celebrate all the
wonders of
creative Principle?

Will my cadence
however joyful and free
take the true measure
of Soul's splendor?

Can a finite phrase
encompass infinite Love?
What melody can
hint Spirit's harmony?

While my lips
strive to shape
my puny praise,
gracious Father-Mother,
teach me to
live my hymn of praise!
