THE tMMUrABILITY OF GOD.

IY Lucy SEYMOUR.
Go mark the vaulted sky,
Behold Won dazzling sun,
And those clear shining orbs on high,
Which round bis circuit run,
That vauted sky shall rhanre--grow old
That sun be dun, and dark and cold;
Those shining orbs eNtingulsh'd fall,
Aad rayless gloom o'crshadow all.
Taen turn thine eyes below,
Upon the tIowr'y earth,
ltsvaried scenes OF bliss aud wo,
Calamity and mlr,h:
These all shall peristI--all shall pass,
Like visions IN mage glass;
Mo- shall one crumbhng fragment stay,
To tell Of glorles paSs'd away.
But thou whose sacred name,
With reverence own,
Through endless ages are the same,
lmmulahIe alone.
Tune. ecathng, 'bighting, Visiting wing,
To thee 10 bl4-h' no cha"sv 90" Ls."s'
Years cannot fad applied 10 thce'
Whose life IS one eternity,
And this soul of mine,
The spark which Lights this cIod,
j. dcstInd evermure To shine,
For lis the breath Of God.
This thinking principle within,
Delac'd, dctorm'd, delil'd by sin,
May seek for death, but cannot die,
Twill live through all eternity.
Thou who didsl Grm my soul,
Transform it Lod, pray,
Subject each act To thy CONTROL
And melt The dr0ss away;
Unite me to thyse'l by ties,
Which shall endure when nature dies,
And in the Judgment let me stand
Redeem d and sealed at thy night hand.
