ship for unity of the spirit Let our
house OF worship ever be house of
Prdyer-of real worship-and then,
Enough the building be plain and the
congregation impoverished, we can
rejoice in the Iightof the countenance
OF our faithful Lord, and say, with
our father i'll God, John Wesley:
s'The best of all is, Cod is ,rilA as.
\ house Of prayer for M people.
Heard the invitations Of the Word of
God: ''Ho, every one that thirsteth.
come ye to the waters, and he that
hath no money: come ye. buy and
eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk,
without money and without price
Seek ye the Lord while he may be
found, call ye upon him while lie is
near. Let tho wicked forsake his
way, and the righteous man his
thoughts; and let him return unto
the Lord, and he will have mercy
upon him, and to cur God, for he
will abundantly pardon" These
from the Old Testament. Now let us
look into the Kew. Hear the blessed
Jesus. oh. ye suffering, homeless,
weary people of Columbia, hear the
sweet words Of incarnate love: Come
unto me, al ye that labor and are
heavy ladc,:, and VIII give Won rest. ="
