To Any One

Go not forth to call Dame Sorrow
From the dim fields of Tomorrow;
Let her roam there all unheeded,
She will come when she is needed;
Then, when she draws near thy door,
She will find God there before.

– By George MacDonald

 

My Grief is hidden in the ground out of sight,
As the Thunderclap forms the crooked Fulgurite.

Lead on, O King Eternal, we follow, not with fears!
For gladness breaks like morning where’er thy face appears;

Thy Cross is lifted o’er us, we journey in its light:
The Crown awaits the conquest; lead on, O God of might.

– From Lead On O King Eternal by Ernest W. Shurtleff

Be sifted through
To raise the shaking sparks
And burn the fields and forests all
To ash?

A-dreaming of the world.

Round it, for castle-wall, a shell
Is guarding it well.

Hope is the bird with its dim sensations;
The shell that keeps it alive is Patience.

– George MacDonald

 

Welcome to our home,
Soft, passing sea foam.
Dust breathed in God’s Breath
Which leaves it in Death,
And rightly are we
Likened to the Sea.

Nightly cry the beasts
Close your doors before your eyes
Sleep through the huntings.

Leaves are coming down:
They come to meet the dark brown,
And show it colours.

If you dread the passing of time,
you will pass your time in dread.

We feel Thy calm at evening’s hour,
Thy grandeur in the march of night,
And when the morning breaks in power,
We hear Thy word, “Let there be light.”

God be with you all!

Enlarge my Steps

A Star,
A King enthroned,
A Light in glory raised;
A glint, a song, its pureness praised,
And lost.
