RESOITTION AND TEMPTAT ION

A spirit whispered in my brain,
"Have you to-day resolved again
How often have you tried in vain!
The Scriptures show a better way,
IT'S better not to VOW thy say
Than thus TO VOW and never pay"
said, "why throw away my shield
For, if have not won the field,
have not conquered till yield
l can resolve in faith and prayer;
IT'S mine, ifnot to do, to dare;
There is 10 evil like despair.
And, to resolve depends on me,
IT'S Gods to win the victory
Yet victory hope to sOe
ASK and receive, -unfaltering keep
Thy purpose do not faint or sleep,
And, in due season, thou shalt reap"
"But how 2" the boding voice replied
''For who can swim against the tide,
When circumstance rolls far and wide
To-day your will is firm and plain;
Tomorrow in the stream Of men,
Yourpurpose is. forgot again,
IT'S time, in Freedom you rejoice;
But what avails barren choice,
Against the worlds seductive voice 90
''But wise Ulysses then l cried,
''The siren song and voice defed,
For, to the mast his limbs he tied.
So 1. against these outward blows,
New circumstances can oppose,
And with my foes, defeat my foes.
AS, when the breeze behind him fails,
The skillful sailor trims his sails,
Moved forward by opposing gales"
Escape thou, thus, this outward sea
Ofcircum.tanco and destiny?
Canst thou escape thysolf?'' saith he.
"For whatsoever hopes he can
Change all his thoughts by rule or plan
Designs to be much more than Man"
Then, to despair my soul was brought,
Yet, in the blackness ofmy thought,
One other hope my spirit caught:
A single impulse from above.
A single throb of generous love
There outward barriers shall remove.
That love shall give me strength to do;
That inward spirit, quickening thr'o,
Shall suddenly make all things new"
The doubling spirit answered straight
''Ths hope contends with sternest fate,
Canst thou thy being re-crcate
The omnipotencc of love grant,
But that is still thy greatest want;
And who shall find loves secret haunt :"
Then, through the silence in my ear,
Another voice l seemed to heSr,
Say, "God is Love and God is near"
O, turn thy falling heart to Him,
Who stoops from circling CLerubim,
To hear the sinners lowly hymn.
Heknocketh daily at tiny door,
New strength to lend, to light to pour,
Whore deadly weakness dwelt before.
Poor spirit, from thy wanderings come,
Through doubt and gloom no longer ro.am
But dwell at once, in God thy homo.
His boundless love shall fill thy breast,
And, OF that heavenly peace possessed,
Thou most shalt work when most at rest.
