EVENING HYMN.

Now the sun hath gone to rest, Stars are coming faint and dim, And the bird within his nest Sweetly sings his evening hymn. Have I tried mamma to mind? Was I gentle in my play? Have I been a true and kind, Pleasant little girl to-day? Then will God take care of me Kindly, through the long dark night; Bright and happy, I shall see Once again the morning light.
