silences were broken by His football

God. After an unusual experience,

THE PAGAN'S PRAYER.
By F. F. CORLISS.

Oh thou who art supreme on earth,
In all the worlds above,
Who dwells in every home and hearth
To teach US human love;
Who gives US birth, health and mirth,
Wisdom, wealth and power,
Who lives with US through life
And through our mortal hour
Teach me there is no hell to fear,
Or far-otf heaven to gain,
But to live uprightly here
And cause no brotherman pain.
If there is hell, l make it here
When | go wrong
And heaven, too, when | am right;
So keep me strong.
Remove my selfish, heartless,
Blindness and grasping greed;
Teach me more kindness,
How to live and serve others need.
May | strew flowers in mans pathway
Throughout life,
Rather than save them for his grave
That ends the strife.
Teach me to learn, to make a life,
And not mean existence,
To conquer life's temptations
By the power of Thy assistance;
Teach me wealth is not to waste,
But earn and not despise;
Not to hoard it in excess
AS life's most cherished prize.
May l feed the hungry, heal the sick
And ease another's woe
Feel that am on the road
Thou wouldst have me go;
Save me alike from bigotry,
Intolerance and pious discomfort;
Teach me Thy laws, Thy truth obey,
That life be well spent
Ground my life in righteousness,
Character and honest, useful deeds;
Let me not worship Thee in myths,
Miracles and truth-denying creeds
Thou wouldst not send US all to hell
For sins we did not do,
And strew damnation Ger Thy land
As our ignorance, we knew,
In sea, soil and sky we see Thee
Working for the human race;
But when Thy love ennobles man,
We know Thee, see Thy face.
When we want to work, walk, talk
And pray to Thee with sanity,
We must do so in helpful service
To all humanity.
To live, love, enjoy, make character
And be reflective,
To exalt Thy life in mans,
Mans in Thine is life's objective.
Thy dwelling place is highest
Where highest is found in man,
To fill our lives, our souls
With Righteousness is Thy plan.
Immortal life is ours; its births and
deaths
An endless repetition;
Ever aspiring through many forms,
1t known no inhibition.
So teach US there is naught to fear,
Here or hereafter,
But to live, love and learn and fill
Our lives with laughter
Teach US that as we think
So we become in fact and deed;
Save US from a false, blind belief,
We do not need.
1t deludes the mind, dwarfs the soul,
Throws reason out,
So teach US only truth of life
And Thee and cure our doubt.
In all Thy works Thou are concealed,
AS force the universal cause;
In man we see Thee revealed
In conscious life, love and laws.
Teach US to find the soul of man;
Be just, know and see
Only then shall we find,
Follow, know and be like Thee.
