THE RELIGIOUS LIFE
READING FOR THE QUIET HOUR
WHEN THE SOUL INVITES ITSELF.

Poem: When God says "wait"-Ths Raso
In the Worlds Vast Arena For the
Prise OF the High cailinE-Be Stead
fast in Seeking the Lord.
When our God writes upon the wall
In letters broad and free,
He writes that all may understand,
And where all men may see.
MSn build and plot and plan and dream,
Devising structures great,
Yet tools must rust and men must DOW
When God says Watt"
When men, their course set Canaan-wards
Unthinking, onward press,
Then comes the stern command: First,
wait.
Walk in the wilderness"
The kings of old heard that decree;
Not Babylon alone
Saw letters writ, or heard the words-
They framed each throne.
To-day-to-day it is the same,
Despite our modern creeds;
The balance yet goes up or down
BY reason of our deeds.
Great kings must pause in humblcness,
And men of common clay
Must heed the writing OF the hand
Along tne way.
This is lesson to the world
The world that soon forgets-
The world that blessings takes. and then
Remembers not its debts.
The followed hand that holds Us all
Writes lessons, soon or late;
And mortal man must understand.
When God says Wait"
Man builds his glory for himself,
Assuming overmuch;
It crumbles into nothingness-
Il crumbles with touch.
Man dreams of wealth, Of rule, OF realm;
Yet, even as he turns,
Upon the wall, in words Of fire,
His lesson burns.
When God says Wait" the revclers,
CARRIED for TIE feast and rout,
Stand wondering. m one by one
The cleaning lights 60 out.
All down the centuries there ring
The sounding tones of fate.
Man realizes what he is
When God says "Wait!"
