SONG OF THE TEEToTALLERS.


BY REV. GEO. ". BETHuSE, u. u.
Let others praise the ruby bright,
In the rcd wines sparkling glow.
Dearer to me Is the diamond lISh;
OF the fountains clearer flow;
The fee, Of earthly mru have ,rod
The juice from the bleeding vino,
But the stream cones pure from the hand Of God,
To fill this cup Of mine.
The give me the cup ofcold watcr-
The clear sweet cup fcoh water;
For his arm is strong, though his toll be
long.
Who drinks bu, the clear cold water.
The dcw-drop lies in the Howcrc,'s cup
How rich is its perfume now!
And the fain,ing earth will, joy looks up,
When Heaven sheds rain on her brow:
The brook goes forth with pleasant voice.
To hear her quiet sung:
Then give me tue cup Of cold water
The clear, sweet cup Of cold water!
For bright is his eye nnd hisspirii high,
Who drinks bu, tie cup Of cold water.
The lark scars up with lighter strain
When the wave has washed her wing;
And the s,ecj fings back his LAUNDERING
manc,"
In NIGH, Of the chry<,al spring:
This was the drink Of Paradise,
Ere blight on her beauty fcll.
And the buried streams Of her gln dneSs rise
In every moss grown well:
Then here's to the cup Of cold wasei-
The pure. sweet cup Of cold water!
For Nature gives TO all tina, livcs
But drunk Of the ccuI cold water!
