"And the rain fell and floods came on, And winds blew round and round Upon that house, and soon it fell In ruins on the ground." The Centurion's Servant. AND, now, when Jesus entered Into Capernaum; A Centurion besought Him for A servant, sick at home. "I will come," He said, "and heal him." The Centurion answered: "Lord, I am not worthy Thou should'st come, But only speak the word. "For I, myself, am in command, And whatsoe'er I say To one, or to another man, They instantly obey." When Jesus heard him, in surprise He said to those around: "I verily, in Israel, Such great faith have not found." Then said to the Centurion: "Go, Thy faith the work has sealed;" And in the self-same hour he found His servant had been healed. Raising the Widow's Son. IT came to pass upon the day Succeeding this event, That as He journeyed on His way, Much people with Him went. Along the road He traveled on, Until He came to Nain; When, just outside the city gate, He met a funeral train. In sorrow they were bearing forth A weeping widow's son; And many sympathized with her-- He was her only one. And when the Lord saw her He had Compassion on her grief; And said unto her: "Weep no more, I bring you sure relief." He touched the bier, and all the friends Stood still in mute surprise, When to the dead He spoke: "Young man, I say to thee arise." And the dead youth sat up, alive, And to her speechless joy, The mother from the Lord received Her resurrected boy. The Pharisee and the Woman. IT happened that a Pharisee Invited Christ to eat, When a poor, sinful woman came And worshipped at His feet; And washed them with her copious tears, And wiped them with her hair, And kissed them, and anointed them With ointment rich and rare. The Pharisee, within himself, Said: "If this man were wise, And were a prophet, he would know This sinner to despise." And Jesus, answering his thought, Explained the woman's love: She was a sinner who, now saved, Her gratitude would prove. And while the guests in wonder gazed, He to the woman spoke: "Thy sins are all forgiven--thy faith Hath broken Satan's yoke." The Blind and Dumb Man. AGAIN a man they bring to Him, Of Satan sore possessed, Both blind and dumb, in wretched plight, But Jesus gave him rest. The sufferer both spake and saw, When people, every one, Who saw this miracle, exclaimed: "Is not this David's Son?" But the proud Pharisees, in heart Ignored this title true; And said the wondrous healing gift To Satan's power was due. Then Jesus knew their thoughts and said: "What logic ye command! If Satan cast out Satan, then His kingdom cannot stand." The Storm on Galilee.
