For modes of faith let graceless Zealots fight....Alexander Pope

For those who love truly never die..
Fountain of Fire whom all divide....
Friendless and faint, with martyred steps
slow

and

Friends and loves we have none, nor wealth nor
blest abode

Friend, you are grieved that I should go..
From Greenland's icy mountains....

..Louise Driscoll

God-seeking thou hast journeyed far and nigh... William Watson

God, who made man out of dust.
God will not let my field lie fallow.
God, you have been too good to me..
Go not, my soul, in search of Him.
Go, soul, the body's guest...
Good-bye, proud world! I'm going home..
Good is an orchard, the saint saith..
Grow old along with me!

Guide me, O thou great Jehovah.

Hast thou a charm to stay the morning star.... Samuel T. Coleridge....

Have patience; it is fit that in this wise.... . George Santayana
Have you not heard his silent steps?..
Rabindranath Tagore

Hear now,
O Soul, the last command of all.
Hear the voice of the Bard......
Hear the word that Jesus spake..
Heaven is not reached by a single bound.
He came and took me by the hand..

He cried aloud to God: "The men below.
He did not know that he was dead....
He hides within the lily...

He is a path, if any be misled.

He is made one with Nature: there is heard.... Percy B. Shelley

He leadeth me! Oh, blessed thought!..

He loved the brook's soft sound..

Here in the country's heart...

Here is thy footstool and there rest thy feet.....

Here lie I, Martin Elginbrodde...

Here lies the flesh that tried....

He sits above the clang and dust of Time.

He stood before the Sanhedrim..

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most
High

He that is down need fear no fall.

He who died at Azan sends...

He whom a dream hath possessed knoweth no

more of doubting

Higher than heaven they sit...

High stretched upon the swinging yard..

His home is on the heights; to him..

Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty!

How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord... "K." in Rippon's Selec-

How shall I address Thee, O God?.
How shall we rise to greet the dawn?

How to the singer comes the song?...

I am the reality of things that seem..

I arise today

I believe in Human Kindness.

I bent unto the ground

I bow my forehead to the dust..

I cannot always feel His greatness.

I cannot find my way: There is no star.

I cannot find Thee! Still on restless pinion.

I cannot say, and I will not say..

I cannot think of them as dead.

I come from nothing, but from where.

I do not count the hours I spend...

I do not fear to lay my body down...

I do not fear to tread the path that those I love
long since have trod...

I do not own an inch of land.

I do not pray for peace nor ease.

I dreamed a dream last night, when all was still. Angela Morgun

If all the skies were sunshine.

If He be truly Christ....

If I have faltered more or less.

If I lay waste and wither up with doubt.

If in that secret place..

If Jesus Christ is a man..

Robert Louis Stevenson.

I fled Him, down the nights and down the days. Francis Thompson
I flung my soul to the air, like a falcon flying... William R. Benét.......

If the red slayer thinks that he slays..
If with head erect I sing....

I give you the end of a golden string..

I greet thee, my Redeemer sure....

I had my birth when the stars were born.
I have achieved. That which the lonely man....
I have a little inward light, which still..
I have a rendezvous with Death...

I have wandered like a sheep that's lost.

I hear and behold God in every object, yet un-
derstand God not in the least....

I heard them in their sadness say.

I hold that Christian grace abounds.

I hold that when a person dies....

I kneel not now to pray that Thou...

I know that my Redeemer liveth-but out of the
depths of time

I know the night is near at hand.

I lay among the ferns....

I like a church; I like a cowl.

I like the man who faces what he must.

I lived my days apart...

I'm far frae my hame, and I'm weary often-
whiles

I missed him when the sun began to bend.
Immortal Love, forever full.

I'm wearin' awa', John.....

I need not shout my faith. Thrice eloquent..
I never saw a moor.....

In every seed to breathe the flower..

In fashion as a snow-white rose, lay then.
In fellowship Religion has its founts..

In many forms we try......

In right I have no power to live.

In temporary pain..

In the cross of Christ I glory.

In the crowd's multitudinous mind.
In the night

Into the bosom of the one great sea.
Into the dusk and snow.....
Into the woods my Master went..

I opened the window wide and leaned.

I passed along the waters, below the humid trees. William Butler Yeats

I said, "I will find God," and forth I went.

I said: "Let me walk in the fields".

I saw a slowly stepping train..
I saw Eternity the other night.
I saw God. Do you doubt it?.
I saw on earth another light..
I saw the spires of Oxford...

I see His blood upon the rose..

"I shall arise." For centuries.

I stood within the heart of God....

It fortifies my soul to know..

I think I could turn and live with animals,

I think that I shall never see..

I, thy servant, full of sighs, cry unto thee.

It lies around us like a cloud....

I took a day to search for God..

I turn my steps where the Lonely Road.

It was the calm and silent night!..
I walk the dusty ways of life......
I was a Roman soldier in my prime..

I watch the farmers in their fields.
I went down into the desert.

I went up to the light of truth as if into a
chariot

I will keep the fire of hope ever burning on the
altar of my soul

I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains.
I would not have a God come in......

Last night I tossed and could not sleep.
Lay me to sleep in the sheltering flame.
Lead, kindly light, amid the encircling gloom
Let me go forth, and share.

Let me go where'er I will.

Let me speak, sir..

Let thy gold be cast in the furnace.

Let us ask ourselves some questions; for that
man is truly wise....

Let us begin and carry up this corpse..

Let us with a gladsome mind..
