Apollos

From the February 1952 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Through Ephesus, Cayster River flows.
How like my life the widening current grows.
The stream begins in distant tiny rills,
Then from the heights it widens in the plain.
When in the sea at last the river spills,
It broadens out again.

Men learned the blessed truths I came to know
On Jordan's shores a score of years ago
When John the Baptist taught.
He said that the Messias soon would come,
That he would heal the sick, the blind, the dumb.
A radiance filled my thought.

And then Priscilla and Aquila came
To teach me in the tender Master's name,
To lead me in the Way.
And now through Paul the perfect Truth I see;
I know the Christ is really come to me
And dwells with me today.
