Poems

Love that binds

From the October 1997 issue of The Christian Science Journal


As you and I learn to know Love
and its healing power
we experience its gentle tranquillity,
purity, and grace, where
harmony and joy superbly flower.

Here, we rest safe
in the Christly consciousness of good,
where Love reflected by you and me
is silently understood.
Aware that Love bright with light

exposes evil's tales, we see
unkind, selfish, fearful thoughts
as error-woven,
tattered, unreal veils
—evil as naught.

We feel spiritually bold, strengthened
by God's unerring law—
accepting gratefully divine Love
and its shadow-dissolving
radiant glow.

And hear Love's voice, sublime,
gently saying, "All, all are mine."
We behold
God-derived brotherly affections
spiritually bind.
