ETERNAL LOVE.

Tune: “Melita.” (By “Sergeant Jack.” Kternal love, thy grace Divine Hath cheered our soldiers’ fighting line. Dark hours of agony arc* past. And war-worn souls find “Peace" at last. (»od grant u» still Thy guiding hand, In each new peril with us stand.

Ktcrnal love, through age s long Hath swelled each Christian’s battle’ ""ng : May fellowship our hearts inspire, All self burnt out in “living fire.” God gran: us each a purer mind. And “whiter lives” for all mankind. Kternal love, whose power sublime Hath touched men’s hearts in every clime’; May bodv, soui, and spirit won. Cleave to our God's immortal Son. Oh, “Master Comrade,” stand Thou Ly, “A world redeemed,” Thy guerdon high. Kternal love, triumphant icign. And soothe for all the battle pain ; Far o’er the* seas our loved one’s lie. Oh, hear, our God, each mourner’’* e rv ; Cheer grief-torn he- »s, wliate’er betide, To blest reunions be their guide. Kternal love, supernal rise. As cj’er the world “the* tumult dies," Give s<»uls of inc-n the* of s ; n. That bids true manhood enter in. Our fathers’ God, Thy people blc”*". Our Kmpire save, in storm and stress.
