Love will show where service waits you Tho’ it be but word or song; Faith will prompt you how to do it Be the service short or long.
You can never be discouraged While the two together blend; Joined to faith, love meets all trials And endureth to the end.
You can leave the lower places, And mount upward every day; Winning character exalted If you faithfully work and pray.
You can reach the best attainments Doing service that you find; And a worthier example You can leave to all mankind.
CROWNING LIGHT.
There is a Land, beyond the gloomy sky, That needs no earthly light for its adorning; Where God’s own children nevermore shall die,— A home of perfect peace and endless morning.
We cannot see the City’s shining towers, But truths divine proclaim the wondrous story,— On earth the cross, in Heaven the crown is ours,— While Gates ajar reveal an inner glory.
