BIBLE REVIEW
June-July
Silence your wars and ragings,
List while I tell you true.
Oh, that you would but hear me,
World, my heart beats for you!
Coward, on the tall grey gallows,
King, on your lofty throne,
Child, by your mother sleeping,
People, you are my own.
We must grow pure and noble;
Nations, shed no more gore.
Love in its truth and beauty,
Do we not need it more?
You must rise up to help me,
Come to the mountains here;
Then can you know my meaning,
Then will your eyes grow clear.
Give up your lust for money,
What is a lump of gold?
Life in a simpler measure
Holds treasures manifold.
Feel my tired arms erouud you,
Reaching from pole to pole,
Negro or half-unmindful,
Part of our God's great whole.
O U C C C
Dawn-and the morning breezes,
Pass o'er
my heated brow.
Down to your needs and sorrows,
People, I'm coming now.
There in the East, a promise
Shows in the sunrise fair,
Peace to the world is coming.
People, you've
heard my prayer!
