MRS. MARY H. WILLIAMS

By Mary H. Williams

TRUTH oft is likened to a light Held far aloft and burning bright; And sending forth each glorious ray To light truth seekers on their way.

Then he who seeks with open mind Some precious light must surely find; And, following as the rays converge, For greater light his search will urge.

Some follow men's reflected light, And groping go as in the night; Dimly the light of truth is seen If human shadow lies between.

Some will not bear the effulgent ray, From its pure radiance turn away. How dangerous must their pathway be Who ever their own shadow see!

And thus it seems our only course The truth to seek at its pure source. The Word a light for aye shall be, And light the world from Calvary.
