Poems

YOU ARE HOLY

From the December 1977 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Scrutinize
as with His eyes—

What perfection,
glory, and beauty
you are,
you have.

You can never have less
if you try,
or others try,

to give the lie
to holiness.

You are holy,
yes, you!

You cannot reject
this truth;

you must stand there
and accept,

and let it wash away
each lie
till you stand forth—

you who are holy,
yes, You!
