The Greatest Gift Poem by Blanche Edith Baughan

The Greatest Gift

Rating: ★3.1


IF of us two might only one be glad,
Pain I’d pursue, and struggle to be sad.
If of us two one only might be great,
Safely obscure I’d triumph in my fate.
O Soul more dear than mine! if of us two
One only might love God, it should be you.

I would agree with Adrian Flett, that thoughts expressed here are 'too pious to believe'!
