God's Kin

Topics: classic

There is no summit you may not attain,          No purpose which you may not yet achieve,          If you will wait serenely and believe     Each seeming loss is but a step toward gain.     Between the mountain-tops lie vale and plain;          Let nothing make you question, doubt or grieve;          Give only good, and good alone receive;     And as you welcome joy, so welcome pain.     That which you most desire awaits your word;          Throw wide the door and bid it enter in.     Speak, and the strong vibrations shall be stirred;          Speak, and above earth's loud, unmeaning din     Your silent declarations shall be heard.          All things are possible to God's own kin.
