Our Souls

by Ella Wheeler Wilcox

   Our souls should be vessels receiving
   The waters of love for relieving
         The sorrows of men.

   For here lies the pleasure of living:
   In taking God’s bounties, and giving
         The gifts back again.

 

from Poems of Progress and New Thought Pastels by Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1913)
