This is my Father's world: O let me ne'er forget That though the wrong Seems oft so strong, God is the Ruler yet.

Loyalty to God is alone fundamental. Feelings, words, deeds, must be beads strung on the string of duty.

Unless we realize our sins enough to call them by name, it is hardly worth while to say anything about them at all. When we pray for forgiveness, let us say, "my temper," or "untruthfulness," or "pride," "my selfishness, my cowardice, indolence, jealousy, revenge, impurity." To recognize our sins, we must look them in the face and call them by their right names, however hard. Honesty in confession calls for definiteness in confession.
