"SEEK, AND YE SHALL FIND"

From the August 1905 issue of The Christian Science Journal


How will the Father, God of Life, reveal Himself to me?
Where may I seek the Saviour, that he still my angry sea?
How find the Star, how follow it, on through the city's glare?
How know where they have laid him, or if he yet be
there?

Through every human concept that perceives a force divine
The Saviour comes, in lowly guise, to touch your heart
and mine;
To bridge the gulf impassable between our sense and Soul
To teach of Truth and purity, to cleanse and make us
whole.

Help us to see Thy presence, Lord, and trust in Thee each
hour
To read Thy loving message in the opening of the
flower
The glory of the western sky. a bird's soft throbbing throat
Voicing—The kingdom is within—on every joyous note.
