Ann Arbor Freemasonry - A Chain Unbroken
aaf262:
Here you see Brian Cors preparing for his last meeting as the Worshipful Master for 2011. Thank you, Brother Cors, for a job well done. The lodge is forever grateful for your year in the East. Interestingly this view to the East contains all Past Masters of the lodge: Blackburn, Cors, Krasnoff and Davidge. We are lucky indeed!

The Mystic Art by Edward Bulwer-Lytton
The world may rail at Masonry, And scoff at Square and Line, We’ll follow with complacency The Master’s great Design. A King can make a gartered Knight, And breathe away another, But he, with all his skill and might, Can never make a Brother. This power alone, thou Mystic Art, Freemasonry, is thine; The power to tame the savage heart With brother-love divine!

Our Cabletow by George B. Staff
Sometimes we hardly know its there, Our guiding cabletow; If we go down the paths of right, Its hold we never know; But if we start the way that’s wrong, It has a sudden way that’s strong, And makes us heed its strength to lead Down paths we ought to go. And yet how good a thing to feel, How fine a thing to know, Then when the baser actions seek To wreck and overthrow, When worldly...

Eternal Light by Henry Engelsman
Call it the ‘oly Bible’? Call it the Blessed Book Call it any name that seems a’right. Call it the Path of Virtue Call it the Way of Life? Mason’s fondly know it as the Light. It doesn’t shine in darkness, Invisible’s its beam, You would not even see a feeble glow, Yet, - if you ups an’ asks ‘em Just ‘ow it got that name, They smile, an turn...

A Destiny by Edwin Markham
Where is a destiny that makes us Brothers; None goes his way alone; All that we send into the lives of others Come back to our own. I care not what his temple or creeds, One thing hold firm and fast- That into his fateful heap of days and deeds The soul of man is cast.

The Temple by Edgar Guest
You may delve down to rock for your foundation piers, You may go with your steel to the sky You may purchase the best of the thought of the years, And the finest of workmanship buy. You may line with the rarest of marble each hall, And with gold you may tint it; but then It is only a building if it, after all, Isn’t filled with the spirit of men. You may put up a structure of brick and of...

The Unseen Temple by Unknown
There is an Oasis, bright and fair; The Unseen Temple is over there, That Perfect Temple, where all is light, Where there is no darkness, there is no night; When Allah calls our friends obey, And fold their tents and steal away To the land where the crystal waters flow, Where the beautiful Palms of Allah grow. That land must, indeed, be wondrous fair, Since our brothers choose to linger there...

Masonic Smile by Unknown
Smiling is infectious, You can catch it like the flu, When someone smiled at me today, I started smiling too. As I passed around the, Altar and a Brother saw my grin, When he smiled, I realized that I’d passed it on to him. I thought about that little smile, Then realized its true worth, A single smile just like mine, Could travel around the earth.
