Some Day

By Flora E. Warren

Some day the wars of earth for power and glory Will find surcease; Some day the hearts now torn will learn Christ's story, And be at peace.
The strife begun e'er earth had seen the dawning, With all increase, Will end; for earth has viewed the thrust of morning, And cries for peace.
Sin's tiny streamlet Eden saw in motion In days of old, Now fills a vast and deep, mysterious ocean All may behold!
Some day the heart where Hatred grew and cherished Her treach’rous scheme, Will sink in endless death—with it to perish Her glory dream.
As morning sun dispels the midnight terror, The flow'rs appear, Eternal Right will banish every error, And Truth be clear.
Peace will again unfold her robe of brightness, Love's diadem; The pure in heart behold heaven's pearly whiteness, Her richest gem.
The soul so weary of its inward striving, Will sweetly rest; The heart so prone to secret, selfish thriving, Be manifest.
Each heart shall know its King, each soul His power; Unto his King Shall be the soul's desire in that glad hour— An offering.
FLORA E. WARREN.
