ALONG THE WAY.

Though tahgled hard li(Vs knot tntly be, And wearily we me it, The silent touch of Father Time Some day will sure undo it* Then dalding, wait; Nothing is late Ih the light that *shines forever, Yve faint at heart, a friend is gone ; We chafe at the world’s hnr.-h drilling J We tremble at sorrows on every bide, At the myriad ways of killing. Yes, say we a l l, If a sparrow fall, The Lord keeputh count forever. H>' keepcth count. We come, we go, We speculate, toil, and falter ; But the measure to each of weal or woe, God can give or alter. He senileth light He sendeth night And change goes on for ever. Whv Hot take life with cheerful trust, With faith in the strength of weakness? The slenderest daisy rears its head With courage, ye£ with meekness. A sunny face Hath holy grace, To Woo the sun for ever. Forever and ever, my darling, yes— Goodness and love are undying ; tp*j4|gj§sFu troubles and cares of e n th ■ ! ;whiged from the first for flying. ' ’ Our way we plough In the furrow ‘‘now But after the tilling and growing, the sheaf—.‘Soil for the root, but the sun for the leaf— And God keepeth watch for ever.
