Working with Love

A SCULPTOR once in olden time Wrought with much love and care, Lest any shadow of himself Should mar his work so fair; Upon his forehead placed a flame, And its soft beams alone Kept ever clear and pure the light Upon his work of stone. Devotion, skill, and patient thought His memory enthrone.
Our foreheads bear the sign of Him Who is the world's great light; And he who keeps alive God's flame Of love, will work aright. Oh, may no shadows from ourselves E'er prove our efforts naught; But may the light of his great love Show singleness of thought, And work which “profiteth,” because With love ’tis wrought. — Selected.
