TO THOSE WHO CARE
Dohnavur, Tinnevelly District,
South India
Christmas, 1909.
Each for himself, we live our lives apart,
Heirs of an age that turns us all to stone;
Yet ever Nature, thrust from out the heart,
Comes back to claim her own.
Still we have something left of that fair seed
God gave for birthright; still the sound of tears
Hurts us, and children in their helpless need
Still call to listening ears.
Heirs of an age that turns us all to stone;

Still call to listening ears.
