Brood O’er Us with Thy Sheltering Wing (Setting II)
Feel and Know that God Alone Governs Man
Glory Be to God
God Is Revealed as Infinite Light
Speak Out, O Soul

BROOD O’ER US WITH THY SHELTERING WING
(Setting II)
Poem by Mary Baker Eddy
Music by Daniel Burton

Brood o’er us with Thy sheltering wing,
‘Neath which our spirits blend
Like brothers birds, that soar and sing,
And on the same branch bend.
The arrow that doth wound the dove
Darts not from those who watch and love.

If Thou the bending reed would break
By thought or word unkind,
Pray that his spirit you partake,
Who loved and healed mankind:
Seek holy thoughts and heavenly strain,
That make men one in love remain.

Learn, too, that wisdom’s rod is given
For faith to kiss and know;
That greetings glorious from high heaven,
Whence joys supernal flow,
Come from that Love, divinely near,
Which chastens pride and earthborn fear,

Through God, who gave that word of might
Which swelled creation’s lay:
“Let there be light, and there was light.”
What chased the clouds away?
‘Twas Love whose finger traced aloud
A bow of promise on the cloud.

Thou to whose power our hope we give,
Free us from human strife.
Fed by Thy love divine we live,
For Love alone is Life;
And life most sweet, as heart to heart
Speaks kindly when we meet and part.

FEEL AND KNOW THAT GOD ALONE GOVERNS MAN
Text by Mary Baker Eddy: Rudimental Divine Science: 10:5-8, 6:7,8
Music by Daniel Burton

Feel and know that God alone governs man; that his government is
harmonious; that He is too pure to behold iniquity, and divides his power
with nothing evil.
All beauty and goodness are in and of Mind, emanating from God.

GLORY BE TO GOD
Text by Mary Baker Eddy: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures:
45:16-18
Music by Daniel Burton

Glory be to God, and peace to the struggling hearts!
Christ hath rolled away the stone from the door of human hope and faith.

GOD IS REVEALED AS INFINITE LIGHT
Text by Mary Baker Eddy: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures:
511: 12, 13;
504:13-15; 190:30, 31 (quoting Ps. 36.9)
Music by Daniel Burton

God is revealed as infinite light.
There is no place where God’s light is not seen,
since Truth, Life and Love fill all immensity and are ever present.
Light destroys darkness, and in the place of darkness all is light.
For with thee is the fountain of life; in Thy light shall we see light.

SPEAK OUT, O SOUL!
Text by Mary Baker Eddy: Pulpit and Press: 10:28, 29; 11:2-6
Music by Daniel Burton

Speak out, O Soul! This is the newborn of Spirit, this is his redeemed, this,
His beloved.
May the sweet song of silver-throated singers, making melody more real,
and the organ’s voice, as the sound of many waters, and the Word spoken
in this sacred temple mingle with the joy of angels.
