SPIRIT SEEKING LIGHT AND BEAUTY

Spirit seeking Light and Beauty,

Hearts still longing for your rest,

You whose thirst for understanding

Is an aching in the breast.

Through the vastness of creation

Though your restless heart may roam,

One alone can quench the burning,

Only one your spirit’s home.

Janet Erskine Stuart (1857 – 1914)

SPIRIT SEEKING LIGHT AND BEAUTY

Taste and see it, touch and hear it,

Hope and grasp the unseen Hand.

Though the darkness cloud your vision,

Trust the heart to understand.

There is light in every moment,

Close as breathing, free as wind.

Understanding finds the seeker,

Beauty waits the heart within.

Janet Erskine Stuart (1857 – 1914)
