As the light fades slowly In the west, And Mother Earth puts Her brood to rest All ...

    THE LOOKING GLASS When I realize how my life’s been spent Making a self-image for the world to see, And how that picture has now been rent By God’s assessment of what makes me, me, I am confounded and undone As truth refutes my view. In vanity I have believed a lie, And in conceit, I tried to pass it on to you. Now, ...
