��John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892). (Selected from Our Master.)

��Part I.

��IMMORTAL Love, for ever full, For ever flowing free, For ever shared, for ever whole,

��A never ebbing sea !

��Our outward lips confess the Name

All other names above ; Love only knoweth whence it came,

And comprehendeth love.

��We may not climb the heavenly steeps To bring the Lord Christ down :

Li vain we search the lowest deeps. For him no depths can drown.

But warm, sweet, tender, even yet

A present help is he ; And faith has still its Olivet,

And love its Galilee.

The healing of his seamless dress

Is by our beds of pain ; We touch him in life's throng and press,

And we are whole again.

Through him the first fond prayers are said

Our lips of childhood frame ; The last low whispers of our dead

Are burdened with his name.
