Why dost Thou love me so, and why clasp me so close to Thy Eternal Heart?
O Blessed Presence, I know, for Thou hast claimed me as Thine own.
I shall nevermore walk apart from Thee.
The love of God is within me.

PEACE STEALS THROUGH THE SOUL

Peace steals through the waiting Soul, and the comfort of the Spirit comes into the stillness of the heart.
Peace, like an ocean of Infinite Life, reflects itself through me and calms every turbulent feeling.
I am at peace and rest in the knowledge of the All Good which is at hand.
I rest in peace.

STAND FORTH AND SPEAK

Stand forth and speak, Spirit within me.
Proclaim Thy presence, announce Thy course.
Declare through me Thy wondrous works and
Let the children of men hear Thy voice.
Behold, He maketh all things new.
The Spirit within speaks words of Truth
and Life to all.
The Spirit within me is God.
I speak the Truth.

SUBTLE ESSENCE OF SPIRIT WITHIN ME

Subtle Essence of Spirit within me,
flowing through me;
Elixir of Life in my veins purifying me
with Thy marvelous Life,
