The Gain One Cannot Measure…

Such a path that lies untraveled waiting for it’s one

Who’ll journey on her day and night until his traveling’s done.

If searching for some fame or lore her purpose used in vain

For none who set their eyes so low receive eternal gain.

But those who take the narrow winding path which is less traveled

Who raise their glance to heaven’s glory see His will unraveled.

A sight which ne’er can be be replaced by any earthly treasure

For true is gain which lies in Him, the gain one cannot measure.

- B. J. Cartwright
