A PRAYER

From the February 1937 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Father, when dawns the day in seeming sadness—
Shadows around, and fondest hopes depressed—
Lift Thou our thoughts to find in Thee new gladness;
Calmed by Thy love reflected—healed and blessed.

No grief can wound the heart on Truth relying;
No sickness quench the wholeness Truth makes clear.
Sin shrinks abashed, when Thy pure light undying
Shines through the gloom to show that Thou art near.

O Life divine, of being Thou the fountain,
May we obey the sweetness of Thy will;
Climbing, with steadfast face, Thy holy mountain,
Find there Thy peace, and all our tumult still.
