“GOD IS LOVE”
At Derby Haven in the sweet Manx landA little girl had written on the sand
This legend:—“God is love.” But, when I said:—
“What means this writing?” thus she answered:—
“It's father that's at say,
And I come here to pray,
And . . . God is love.” My eyes grew dim—
Blest child! in Heaven above
Your angel sees the face of Him
Whose name is love.
