Poems

THE CHRIST CALLS, COME!

From the March 1939 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The Christ calls, Come, my feast will meet your need;
Forsake your worldly tasks and come apart
To rest awhile in peace and learn of me;
Obedience fulfills expectancy.
Not for yourself alone, but for the world,
The banner of Truth's power must be unfurled.
All earth-bound thoughts cast out and follow free,
Losing self-sense, materiality.
Then, like the loaves and fish of old, your heart
With Truth's supply a multitude can feed.
