TIE DYING CHILD!

s4if
Come to the bed of death! draw near
Il. That child, whose tender voice
Is raised while yet she fingers here, i
+. 81 And bids us all rejoice.
Deaths paleness has o'erspread her face,
But she is calm within;
Her spirit soon will leave the place,
And dwell above with Him.
With him 1.-THE God who bids her come
Who died her soul to save;
Whose Angels stand to guard her home,
TO bliss beyond the grave.
"Now mamma lay your gentle head
Right here, beside my face;
And tell me, shall be, when dead
With George in that good plaae.
shall not live 10 see the sun;
But God, TO whom you pray,
Win take me when my breath is done,
To be with him Away.
Now, pa, do carry me once more;
And lay me On your breast;
For soon MY life it will be DER,
And shall be at rest"
Thus spoke the spfiser, and straightway
,gsaw that all Vas Ger.
Bic tried to speak, and said "papa,
But words spake never more.
Adicu dear child! we'll meet again,
On that eternal shore;
Where free from sickness, woe and pain,
Wen meet 10 part 10 more. !.
sHcr little brother who died some time previous.
