John 1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. The sun does not shine for a few trees and flowers, but for the wide world's joy. The lonely pine on the mountain top waves its sombre boughs and cries," Thou art my sun." And the little meadow violet lifts its cup of blue, and whispers with its perfumed breath, " Thou art my sun." And the grain in a thousand fields rustles in the wind, and makes answer, "Thou art my sun." (H. W. Beecher.) Parallel Verses KJV: In him was life; and the life was the light of men. |
