Poems

Innocence

Matthew 18:10

From the October 1953 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The childlike, pure, and holy thought
In God's own likeness fair
Forever sees the Father's face
And finds its glory there.

No sweetness of itself may own
Each childlike grace He gives.
In humble trust it looks to God
For life, and seeing—lives.
