OF INTEREST IN THE
SOCIAL REALM
V my master
I had walked life’s path with an easy
tread,
Had followed where comfort and pleas
ure led;
And then by chance, in a quiet place,
1 met my Master face to face.
With station and rank and wealth for
a goal,
Much thought for the body, but none
for the soul,
I had entered to win in life’s mad race,
When I met ray Master face to face.
I had built my castles, and reared them
high,
Till their towers had pierced the blue
of the sky;
I had sworn to rule with iron mace,
When I met my Master face to face,
I met Him and knew Him and blush
ied to see
at His eyes, full of sorrow, were fix*
ed on me;
And I faltered and fell at His feet that
day,
While my castles melted and vanished
away.
Melted and vanished, and in their place
I saw naught else but my Master’s face;
And I cried aloud, “Oh, make me meet
To follow the marks of Thy wounded
feet!”
My thought is now for the souls of
men.
I have lost my life to find it again
E’er since alone in that holy place
My Master and I stood, face to face.
