Poems

Silent Prayer

From the December 1953 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The golden thread of Truth, which we perceive
In silent prayer,
Illumes the holy purpose that it weaves
And clothes us there.

The morning meal which Love prepares we take
In silent prayer.
As inspiration shows that those awake,
His image bear.

The ceaseless longing to be good always
Is silent prayer.
In this at-one-ment, which is living praise,
Man is God's heir.
