Poems

What river

II Kings 5:10-14

From the June 1983 issue of The Christian Science Journal


(Question)

What river must I dip in, Lord,
that I, too, may be clean—
washed of all impurities,
those seen and (more) unseen?

(Answer)

The Jordan of My truth flows clear,
available to all,
as near as consciousness is near,
responding to the call.

(Request)

Dissolve whatever Naaman-rage
would counter Thy command,
all willful suffering now assuage
with Thy strong/gentle hand.
