Poems

God's day

From the February 2000 issue of The Christian Science Journal


"This is the day which the Lord hath made;
we will rejoice
and be glad in it," Ps. 118:24. the Psalmist said.
Heed now his voice.

This is the day when Mind beholds
its perfect plan—
divine intelligence unfolds
in idea, man.

The day when Spirit's cleansing ray
of truth dispels
belief in matter's brash display;
shows all is well.

The day when Soul supreme reflects
all beauty, grace;
reveals man's selfhood pure; rejects
the senses' farce.

This is the day of Principle's
wise government
controlling all—invincible,
omnipotent.

The day when Life divine shows forth
itself in life
untouched by illness, age, or death
and free from strife.

The day when Truth alone maintains
the rule of right,
annulling error's darkest claims
with piercing light.

This is the day that Love inspires
with liberty;
all fear dissolves, all hate expires,
and we are free.
