The Bible was like a rose
with petals tightly furled.
Yet, its secrets I would know
to help this hungry world.
Then one day another book
came to guide the way.
Science and HealthMary Baker Eddy, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures made the bloom
open to the light of day.
The petals unfurled so eagerly—
the Bible's power revealed,
showing the truth in clarity,
like a rose in full, bright flower.
These books stand side by side
healing ills of every kind.
The "full beauty of the rose,"
the full Word of God, divine Mind.
