THE PRACTITIONER

From the June 1939 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Where darkness reigned, you brought the light to me,
And showed the way that leads to liberty.
You turned my thoughts away from suffering sense
To see the truth of Love's omnipotence
And omnipresence, where no loss can be,
For man's true selfhood lives eternally!

When fraught with grief, and slow to understand,
You gave your friendship, and you took my hand,
And gently led me where no grief can be—
To Spirit's realm, where all are joyous, free!
And now I know, though parted humanly,
That all are one in Love's sweet unity.

My courage faltered—yours stood firm and true;
And you with Christlike patience helped me through
The nights of error, dark with grief and pain,
And now I see the light of Truth again.
With humble gratitude I daily pray,
Grant that I, too, may be a steadfast ray.
