PART ONE: "ALL'S WELL!"

GOD IS

God is;

God sees;

God loves;

God knows.

And Right is Right;

And Right is Might.
In the full ripeness of His Time,
All these His vast prepotencies

Shall round their grace-work to the prime

Of full accomplishment,

And we shall see the plan sublime

Of His beneficent intent.

Live on in hope!

Press on in faith!

Love conquers all things,
Even Death.

WATCHMAN! WHAT OF THE NIGHT?

Watchman! What of the night?

No light we see,

Our souls are bruised and sickened with the

sight

Of this foul crime against humanity.

The Ways are dark

"I SEE THE MORNING LIght!"

-The Ways are dark;

Faith folds her wings; and Hope, in pite

ous plight,

Has dimmed her radiant lamp to feeblest

spark.

Love bleeding lies

"I SEE THE MORNING LIGHT!"

-Love bleeding lies,

Struck down by this grim fury of despight,

Which once again her Master crucifies.

He dies again

"I SEE THE MORNING LIGHT!"

WATCHMAN! WHAT OF THE NIGHT? (con

tinued)

-He dies again,

By evil slain! Who died for man's respite
By man's insensate rage again is slain.
O woful sight!

"I SEE THE MORNING LIGHT!

Beyond the war-clouds and the reddened
ways,

I see the Promise of the Coming Days!
I see His Sun arise, new-charged with grace
Earth's tears to dry and all her woes
efface!

Christ lives! Christ loves! Christ rules!
No more shall Might,

Though leagued with all the Forces of the
Night,

Ride over Right. No more shall Wrong
The world's gross agonies prolong.
Who waits His Time shall surely see
The triumph of His Constancy;-
When, without let, or bar, or stay,
The coming of His Perfect Day

Shall sweep the Powers of Night away;
