"Put on the new man"

Ephesians 4:24

From the October 1957 issue of The Christian Science Journal


No time have I to spend in idleness today;
No moments can I lend to error's subtle way.
A task I have been given through this direct demand:
Put off the old, put on the new. A clear command!
Each thought must be controlled, each motive purified,
Timidity made bold and faith refortified.
But joyously I press toward the desired goal,
To prove that, even now, God's man is perfect, whole!
