TO MISS a. poTY, ON THE DEATH OF HER SISTER


How dark earth without the faith
That points worlds on high
In Joy how oft false safety saith
These pleasures cannot die.
But in adyersity's dark night,
Religions worth we test
What but this beacon then light
Our path, and give us rest?
Kind FRIEND when darken'd clouds drew near
And round thy pathway lowerd,
Say what then cbas'd away thy fear,
But faith in Jesus word?
Death came, and took from thy embrace
Thy only sister dear
Thou'lt see more that lov'd ones face,
But chase away that tear.
Chase it away God saw il best
To take her soul away,
And give thy weary sister rest,
In courts of endless day.
Rest for the soul on Jesus breast!
oh what safe retreat
To be with such refuge blest,
And for such Joys be meet
Why wish her back there her pure soul
Is freed from ov'ry stain;
And DER her waves of music roll,
She tunes heavily strain.
How faint arc all our Of Joy,
CompaI'd with those above
There sinless angels find employ
In chanting dying love,
Mother and sister, brothers all,
And friends who held her dear
oh, heed this wamng-hear this call
And for this bliss prepare.
pray that in one glorious band
You may united be,
Around the throne, at Gods right hand
oh join this prayer with me- p.
