Explore "Truth" by Mary Baker Eddy on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
/ Beyond the clouds, away / In the dim distance, lay / A bright and golden shower / At sunset's radiant hour, -- / Like to the soul's glad immortality, / Making this life divine, / Making its waters wine, / Giving the glory that eye cannot see.
/ In God there is no night, -- / Truth is eternal light, / A help forever near; / For sinless sense is here / In Truth, the Life, the Principle of man. / Away, then, mortal sense! / Then, error, get thee hence, / Thy discord ne'er in harmony began!
/ Immortal Truth, -- since heaven rang, / The while the glad stars sang / To hail creation's glorious morn -- / As when this babe was born, / A painless heraldry of Soul, not sense, -- / Shine on our 'wildered way, / Give God's idea sway, / And sickness, sin, and death are banished hence.
Lynn, Mass., _April, 1871_.
