Blest word, thy sweetness permeates my thought
With perfume as of first-born violets
Found in awakening woodlands in the spring—
Just this word, "Surely."
Truth is not lost; Love has not fled;
Life lives eternal— "I AM THAT I AM."
And gratitude awakes and sings
Throughout the darkest day
And blackest-seeming night;
And lo, the dawn of demonstration!
God, I thank Thee—thank Thee
For just this one word, "Surely."
