Spirit of Life
Lovely as bright sunshine after rain,
When birds sing blithe and gay;
Cool, refreshing as a mountain spring,
When faint, at heat of day;
Richer than the cherry's tapestry
Of pink against, the blue;
Sweeter than love's tender lullaby--
Thy presence, Spirit true.
Precious Thy infilling, Spirit pure,
For Thou dost life impart.
Overflow my little cup, but first,
O fill my thirsting heart!
--Alfonso N. Anderson.
