Additional quotes by Margaret Junkin Preston

Gracious as sunshine, sweet as dew Shut in a lily's golden core.

White as the blossoms which the almond-tree,
Above its bald and leafless branches bears.

With guilt's defilement stained without, within,
How can I hope Thy cleansing grace to win?
—Because Thou saidst, "I have forgiven thy sin."
