Poems

THE MOTHER CHURCH

From the December 1894 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Temple built by faith and wisdom,
Hallowed by our Mother's prayer,
Every loyal son, and daughter — enter there.

Mightiest temple of all ages,
One in all the world thou art;
Truth and Love, sought for by sages
Holds thee in its sacred heart.
Everlasting Mind has formed thee,
Reared thee on the solid rock;
Christ, alone is thy foundation,
Hell's false claim can never shock.
Undivided Life, protects thee,
Round thee God and freedom move.
Church of Christ — how grand thy mission,
Holding forth God's word of Love!
