How NEAR is HEAVEN Christians some
times look far away to heaven but that rest is
not far Off The clouds that hide their shining
worlds are thin, they are transient, and soon
will obscure no more, the journey may end this
hour; one short step may place the Christian
in ray of light; one dark hour may hang up-
on him but the morning comes and shade be-
hind it. Day, bright, peaceful and eternal,
succeeds 1t. pang may be left for moment.
and flies away forever A conflict, sharp and
painful, may continue for night but victory,
eternal victory ensues. How soon, oh /! how
soon the Christians cares are over, his ewes
sufused no more with tears. Near at hand is
the land of his pursuit. Hope cheers. How
glorious the object that hope embraces! How
holy its spirit Who can contemplate the home
that our heavenly Father is fitting for his chill
dren, and not feel In his soul thirst for it's
enjoyment! Wel these delights, the happy
cline those ever verdant plains, are not far
distant
