…Beloved friends, the professing church of Christ stands in need of greater purification than it has yet attained to…there are many spots on her garments; she is defiled by the dust of the earth; and her garments are very much tattered.

Age (when it found time to begin), Was like a point, point of a pen. Later, age becomes a mere word, Then words “bunched up,” as a full herd. Soon age is its own paragraph; (Do “aging” jokes now make you laugh?) Age, in its swift moving old rage, At present covers a full page. [...]

Is your patience ever thinning? Almost, if not actually, sinning? Has grouchiness replaced your happy song? Do your neighbors really try you, ‘Specially the ones too nigh you? Frankly, you wish they’d just “move along.” Do you see you are “justly” proud, (Though hesitant to say it too loud) Of your clever, cool, and [...]

Committed, He came from the realm of great grace. Committed, descended, to earth’s meanest place. Committed, He took on man’s body, man’s face. Thank God for Christ’s birth, everyday. Committed, returned from His temple-time talk. Committed, returned to a carpenter’s “walk.” Committed to “parent’s” control – with no balk. Thank God for Christ’s childhood [...]

There’s a crowd gathering on another shore, The group’s grower larger every day. They are gathering in from all directions, Yet all came there by God’s narrow way. That crowd had skins of different shades, Spoke languages to each other quite unknown, But they are connected by one Royal Blood, For Christ firmly owns [...]

He went into the temple Where you’d think one could look up. But his attitude was humble, He saw “dregs” in his cup. He asked God for mercy; He beat upon his chest, Called himself a sinner (Not better than the rest). He cast his eyes downward, They sought the lowly ground. But [...]
