Such songs have power to quiet
The restless pulse of care, And come like the benediction
That follows after prayer.
— Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.
Then all the jarring notes of life
Seem blending in a psalm, And all the angles of its strife
81ow rounding into calm.
—John Greenleaf Whittler.
Peace 1 and no longer from its brazen portals The blast of war's great organ shakes the skies,
But beautiful as songs of the immortals The holy melodies of love arise.
— Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.
