On the billowy sea of life,
Andafaraway from~thelightvofday
seemed lost in the stormy strife
When the angry waves OF crime n SIN
Dash DER and stain his robe of pride,
Andthe precious spark offaith therein
Is almost drowned by the rising tide,
Thenthe angel of Hope withAe beauti-
full songs
Will dawn on the stricken soul,
Light upthe midnight ofathe seayw~
Fill again the g Golden Bowl"
Fear not thou stricken, weary soul,
Though the sea OF fife be dark,
For God gives thee the angel, Hope,
To steer thy slender bark.
No mortal hand may give thee aid,
No mortal eye beam DER thy way,
Bus God willgive thee light M strength
Himself will still the stormy sea.

When 1 babe thee las adieu.

Softly on the distant west,
Pleasant memories Of thee ever
Hover round nay Eearied breast.
Yes, I'm thinking of thee often;
And, though oft by cares oppressed,
