I love my Bible, for it is
The pure inspired word;
It came from God; it leads to bliss;
...
Let us hail the newborn year,
Come our drooping hearts to cheer,
Let us all be cheerful, gay,
...
'In the night His Song shall be with me.'
- Psalm 42:8
When Sol has sunk behind the West
And night her mantle spread,
...
A Prince among the sons of men is dead,
The healer of the breach, a warrior brave
Has passed away to fill a soldier's grave,
...
Will 'the family in heaven'
Be to each other known?
Is the hope in Scripture given?
...
Keen, biting frost, a chilling wind,
With drifting snow and bitter sleet,
Ah! Nature has been too unkind,
...
When trials come, for come they will,
Be patient if you can,
Avoid them if you have the skill,
...
Peace is a ray of heavenly light-
A calm serenity of thought-
A cloudless day without a night;
...
