Poems

WORDS OF JESUS

From the September 1898 issue of The Christian Science Journal


"Let not your heart be troubled;"
Little children, still believe
In my Father's house are mansions,
Where my loved ones I'll receive.
Have I dwelt so long among you,
Toiled in vain, since still unknown?
In me ye've known the Father,
The way to Him my life hath shown.

I will give a new commandment
Ere I go the appointed way:
Little children, love each other;
Bound in Love, ye cannot stray.
Little children, love each other;
This alone will prove you mine;
When ye dwell in Love together,
Throughout the world your light will shine.

Comfortless I will not leave you;
Keep my words, my works still do.
I will pray the Father for you;
All His promises are true.
Peace I leave, my peace I give you;
Such the world can never give.
In my Love still safe abiding,
As I live, so ye shall live.
