The Touch of Truth

From the December 1962 issue of The Christian Science Journal


When Jesus did his mighty works
On the shores of Galilee,
The touch of Truth was all it took—
With lifted hand and loving look—
To make men whole and free.

The blind men saw, the deaf ones heard;
Up rose the halt and lame.
His slightest word cast devils out,
Delivered men from fear and doubt
When to the Christ they came.

Today, as then, the healing Word
Is touching mortal mind.
As thought begins to sing and soar
A grain of Truth works wonders for
The health of all mankind.
