("B.A." Chestnut Hill, Mass.)


In the deepening twilight there floats
From the chapel above, the loved hymns of healing--
Hymns of comfort, of courage, welling up from grateful hearts
And bringing reassurance of God's power
To one who listens below in silent prayer and praise.
Great peace of God, be with us all!
Great peace of God encompass us!
Speak to the waves tonight, Father, that they stand.
Stretch forth Thy hand and stay their power,
Calm them, that they overwhelm not.
For Thy voice is "mightier than the noise of many waters,
Yea, than the mighty waves of the sea."
This Thou canst do, O my God.
