Poems

SPONTANEOUS LOVE

From the November 1937 issue of The Christian Science Journal


He cares not that his song be heard,
He sings for joy, that little bird
Whose heart is full of happiness.

Early as the sun's first ray,
Before he breaks his fast, his lay
Rings out and proves his trust in God.

Help me to sing my little song,
Unmindful, as I go along,
How well received 'twill be.

With open lips and kindly heart,
Help me to lovingly impart
What I have learned of Thee.

Teach me to share my all of good,
To live my sense of brotherhood,
To bless my fellow men.

To prove the Father works through all
Who listen and obey the call
To live, to serve, to cheer.

To let my love reflected be,
As is my Father's love to me—
Impartial, Christlike love.
