TRANSFIGURATION.

By Hope Onslow

Not on the mount alone Was humanity Transfigured with snow-white flame By divinity; The Head of love's Brotherhood With love's glory shown, Linking our race to God, In the ministering paths He trod, And not there alone.

Down mid the toiling crowds Where no glorious light Shone for the outward eye, Lo! the inner sight Saw how humanity Was divinely fair In love's glorious ministry, In the Christ that so bore for thee, And for all men, care.

In the lowly paths of love How His footprints shine Up or down in the way Of the mount divine! Tho the world beholds no light, We behold the blaze Of divinity matchless, bright, As we follow His steps aright In His ministering ways.
