“We praise Thee, Lord, of all the earth, for love and joy, for light and mirth, for every charm of sense and right, and blessings boundless as Thy might.... But most we praise the love that gave thine own dear Son to seek and save, for joy all other joys excelling, for purest light and life indwelling.” LightMightEarthJoyJesusLordSonBlessingPraiseDearTheeCharmBoundlessMirth Author:Cecil Frances Alexander
“How rarely boyhood loves to paint in glowing tints his future bright, a picture where no line is faint--whose very clouds are touch'd with light.

But rosy clouds that morning brings, ere noon may deepen into thunder--and life's dark stream has sterner things than silver lilies growing under.” WorldMayDreamLightLinesDarkMorningGrowingPaintCloudsGladStreamsSilverThunderGlowingLiliesNoonHailBoyhoodRosyGirlhoodAzure Author:Cecil Frances Alexander
“Souls in heathen darkness lying, where no light has broken through, souls that Jesus bought by dying, whom his soul in travail knew....
