The Country Faith
Reading edition
Here in the country’s heart Where the grass is green Life is the same sweet life As it e’er hath been. Trust in a God still lives, And the bell at morn Floats with a thought of God O’er the rising corn. God comes down in the rain, And the crop grows tall— This is the country faith, And the best of all!
Norman Gale
Green Things Growing
Not God! in gardens! when the eve is cool? Nay, but I have a sign; ’Tis very sure God walks in mine.
Thomas E. Brown
