POetry's Power
WHY the appeal Of poetry? For
w one thing, it is vivid. 1t is in
colors, not severe black and white.
1t lives and breathes, at times it
shouts, and it always sings.
1t is true to say "The provi-
dental oversight Of the Creator
is continuous and unremitting;
but it is more effective to say,
+. "The Lord is my shepherd" 1t
would be true to say, THE evil
dences of creative and bene-
ficent purpose can be seen
throughout all the orders of ma
ture;" but how much more
vivid is the 14Sth Psalm, call
ing on hail and fire, sun and
moon ard stars Of light, to
praise the Lord!
Another secret Of poetry's power
is that it is the language of emo
ton. Professors and theologians
may be saying the same things as
the poet, and maybe even saying
them more completely and accu-
rately; but what they say is less
easy to remember.
So these emotional Psalms will
always appeal, even to the profess
sor when off duty, because they
make us feel religion and not mere
ly think it.
Pictures of God
co IT IS no wonder the Psalms
Nhave been loved and sung all
over the world. We are perhaps the
only religion that has made SO
much use Of another religion s
hymn book. Different though our
faiths may be, Jews and Christians
can sing from the Psaltcr with one
voice and heart.
For centuries it was the
hymnal Of the Christian church.
Indeed, UP TO recent years
some large denominations
would allow in public Worship
the singing of no other songs
than the Psalms.
Many Of our best hymns and pop
ular gospel songs, as we have al
ready seen, are based on Psalms.
Crock of Ages, cleft for me, ;" "a
Shelter in the Time of Storm, ;"
Gliding in Thee" they all go
back to the Psalmist's picture Of
God as a Rock Cps. 1920. The
Psalmist was not thinking of a
little rock in cornficld. He was
thinking of some tall crag in the
fierce hot landscape of his coun-
try.
A rock there is a landmark, it is
a shelter against the blazing sun,
people could live under its over
hanging height.
So God is the landmark Of
life, he gives direction to our
ways; he is the shelter on LIES
weary journey, he is orr safe
dwelling.
So with the many other pictures
of God in the Psalms-he is light,
he is shade. he is the guard on
duty at night watching over the
sleeping city Cps. 12D; he is a
shepherd, he is water for the thirst
ing soul Ups. 42.)
