Poems

We Receive What We Believe

From the November 1947 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The Bible promise stands: Those who believe
In God and do His will in all their ways—
Even in their asking—shall receive
Abundantly of good. Should we not praise
The source of all true blessing for His grace
In sending us His Son to show us how
We may behold our Maker face to face
By seeing man as God's own likeness now?

What does it mean to trust in God alone?
If we believe in Him, can we know fear?
If we dread evil, then we must atone
In suffering—for doubt that God is here.
Since God is good and God alone is power,
Then good alone is present every hour!
