The Cascade MY TEMPLE I stood one day in a temple conceived of man ' s desire, And heard the soft ' toned organ, the chanting of the choir; I felt an awe majestic come o ' er my troubled soul, But naught of God there entered to cleanse my heart so foul. I thought one day in this temple and my thought was one of greed. Untouched by peace and indness, no thought of others ' need. My pride, unbridled, tainted my heart in its desire; My soul at its own bidding deep wallowed in the mire. I dreamed one day in this temple and my dreams were idly vain, Sordid and full of malice, tarnished with selfish stain. I prayed one day in this temple, a fervent earnest prayer; A [o answer calmed my spirit — God ' s presence was not there. I stood one day in a temple unstained by worldly care; Its arches were the branches, its carpet mosses fair. Ho need of ncUrobed choir; there was no rented pew, The windows mottled golden, the ceilings wondrous blue. I thought one day in this temple, and my thoughts were free from dross, As the filtered sunlight blotchings athwart the velvet moss; I prayed one day in this temple, a humble heartfelt plea. That bro e sin ' s darl ( enthrallment and set my bound soul free. I dreamed one day in this temple, and my dreams were high and pure As the cloudless s y above me, as lofty and as sure; Np passing lightsome fancy nor gusty passion breath. Dreams that would await secure the silent hand of death. And now, when my soul is sickened with sordidness and sin, And seeing the mad scramble that worldly fortunes win, I leave the seething turmoil and go to my temple fine, To feel a calming presence and clasp the hand divine. —Lloyd Vincent.
