Poems

GOD IS LOVE

From the June 1899 issue of The Christian Science Journal


True Love is that which comes from God alone,
And Perfect that which Christ for man hath shown—
Jesus, who triumphed over Sin and Death,
Jesus, who pardoned with his dying breath.

God is Supreme! the one omniscient Mind
Through whom the Way, the Truth, the Life, we find.
Made in His image and His likeness, man
Of Sin and Death, claims freedom from the ban.

As Heirs of God, in us that Mind should be,
That in Christ Jesus we can always see.
Oh! let us strive for this, and watch, and pray
For purity and meekness, day by day.
