123 The Golden Key Which Fits All Locks

The Golden Key Which Fits All Locks by John McDuff from Thoughts for the Quiet Hour, 1895. If I have not love, I am nothing. 1 Corinthians 13 verse 2. What a magic spell there is in love, the absolute devotion of a beautiful soul which loses itself in the hallowed mission of radiating peace and joy and sympathy all around. When other charmers have failed to charm, many dull, unsusceptible ears have been arrested and won by the music of kindness. By it, old age renews its youth, sick pillows are smoothed, burdens are eased, tears are turned into smiles, dirges are turned into songs. Love is, of all magical charms, the most irresistible. Love is the golden key which fits all locks. If I have not love, I am nothing. 1 Corinthians 13 verse 2.
