 I SEE HIS BLOOD UPON THE ROSE

I see His blood upon the rose And in the stars the glory of His eyes, His Body gleams amid eternal snows, His tears fall from the skies.

I see His face in every flower; The thunder and the singing of the birds Are but His voice—and carven by His power Rocks are His written words.

All pathways by His feet are worn, His strong heart stirs the ever-beating sea, His crown of thorns is twined with every thorn, His cross is every tree.

THE STARS SANG IN GOD'S GARDEN

The stars sang in God's garden; The stars are the birds of God; The night-time is God's harvest, Its fruits are the words of God.

God ploughed His fields at morning, God sowed His seed at noon, God reaped and gathered in His corn With the rising of the moon.
