Christian Poems of MEEKNESS - (Various authors)


'The day when Jesus stood alone and felt the hearts of men like stone,

'and knew He came but to Atone --

'that day 'He held His peace.'


'They witnessed falsely to His word,

'they bound Him with a cruel cord, and mockingly called Him 'Lord';

''but Jesus held His peace.'


'They spat upon Him in the face, they dragged Him on from place to place,

'they heaped upon Him all disgrace;

''but Jesus held His peace.'


'My friend, have you for far much less, with rage, which you called righteousness,

'resented slights with great distress?

'Your Saviour 'held His peace!''

--L.S.P.



'Let me be a little sweeter -- Make my life a bit completer,

'by doing what I should do every minute of the day.

'Let me toil without complaining, not a humble task disdaining.'
