Poems

I Shall Stand Today upon the Mountain

From the November 1952 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I shall stand today upon the mountain,
And I shall see
The universe,
Spiritual, ordered, majestic,
Singing in pristine harmony.

Established today upon my mountain,
How shall I see?
I shall see with the eyes of understanding.
With the single vision of Soul:
I shall behold
The glory and beauty and health and holiness
Of man.
Made in the image of his creator.

The mountain is the revelation
Of man's oneness with God.
