THE PROPHET

From the September 1967 issue of The Christian Science Journal


"Father, I will go," I said; "At Your bidding I will venture out, and will do Your will; Perform all things diligently at Your behest, Relinquish my own desires, reservations, deepest yearnings, To do Your will, Yours only. I will travel to whatever far country You send me, Leaving home and hearth, kith and loving kin, Sheltered garden, worn paths, known ways, Loved landmarks, safe grooves, sure resting places.
