"GOD IS LOVE."
We read it on the brow of Heaven,
We hear it in the breeze,
We see it in the morning dew,
That sparkles on the trees.

'T is written on each budding plant,
Tis traced in every flower,
We feel it in the Sun's bright beams,
And in the genial shower.

We read it on the ocean wave,
In every gem above,
All nature bears the impress strong,
That tells us, "God is Love."

'T is borne upon the midnight air,
The moon-beams breathe the sound,
The little brook that murmurs by
In solitude profound,

In happy unison unite,
And sing one joyous song;
The ¢ universal law of love,"
To all alike belong.

It moves unseen in every breast,
With influence from above;
We feel and own the hidden power
That whispers—"God is Love."
