BE SWIFT.
Be swift, dear heaTt, in loving, For time is .brief/ And thou mayest^soon along life's pathway Keep step with grief. Be swift, dear heart, in saying The kindly word; When ears are sealed thy passionate pleading ' Will not be heard. Be swift, dear heart, in doing The gracious deed, Lost soon |th«y whom, tjhou holdcst dearest,' , Be past the needi Be swift, dear heart, in giving The rare sweet flower, Nor wait to heap witfc blossoms the casket ' In some sad hour. Dear hearty be swift in lovingTime speedeth on; And all thy chance of blessed service Will soon be gone.
