Alone – A Poem

The Bulletin Board is for gratitude for Christian Science and the Church, as well as timely excerpts from the Bible, the works of Mrs. Eddy, and the early workers that help and encourage. We are very grateful for all posts that conform to these guidelines, but will edit or remove anything that the Practitioners feel is not in complete accord with pure Christian Science or in any way disrespectful of it.

We also ask that you keep your postings as concise as possible. If you quote the Bible, please use The King James Version, as this is what Mrs. Eddy used. Thank you!

    This is a beautiful poem from the September 1900 Journal. It’s about being alone with God no matter what is clamoring for our attention, on the outside. I thank the Plainfield Christian Science Church, Independent for bringing my thought to the place of understanding that I am not alone with myself, but alone with God.

    ALONE
    BY SARA E. BRADLEY.

    Alone? with Thee, when the bright day is breaking?
    Alone? with Thee as evening shadows fall?
    Still, still with Thee in the dark hour of midnight,
    How can I fear, since Thou art All-in-all?

    And I to Thee, in the glad hour of triumph,
    And I to Thee all praise and glory give.
    Still, still to Thee, when error loudest calleth
    To Thee I look, in whom I move and live.

    Alone with Thee! ‘Tis perfect happiness!
    Alone with Thee I have no thoughts but Thine.
    Still, still with Thee! ‘Tis peace and joy unbounded!
    I’m ne’er alone, Life, Truth, and Love are mine.
