"GOOD IS MY GOD, AND MY GOD IS GOOD"

From the September 1926 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Good is my life, my joy, my peace,
My hope, my strength, which still increase
Each hour, if I but humbly pray:
Teach me Thy law, Thy will, Thy way.

Good is the power that never wanes,
But mightier proves. All human pains
And fears are conquered through Thy grace,
As steadfastly I seek Thy face.

Good is the source from which do flow
All blessings; and I surely know
'T is from this source my every need
Is met abundantly, indeed.

God is my Father-Mother, Friend,
Who guards, upholds me to the end
Of mortal wrestlings; then I see
That God is All-in-all to me.

*Miscellaneous Writings, by Mary Baker Eddy, page 206.
