The world lay all before us,
And full brilliant was the scene,
As smooth and fair the untried path.
As Ger could be, ween;
The blue mist hid the distant hills
That seemed to touch the sky
Those distant hills that Hs should clint.

And 80, alone, amid the throng
That work and wait. and try,
We boldly trod the well-worn path,
My Heart and I.
The sweet spring days wA1ed long and bright (;
The hills were far away;
But onward slill we pressed, nor paused,
Though fierce the noontide's ray;
The troe-tops whispered round us,
And the little birds sang nigh,
But VIC did not heed, scarce heard them,
My Heart and |.
Alb me! the nelds grew white with grain,
The leaves fell thick and fast,
And we were worn with painful toll,
And shivered in the blast.
Aud still the hills-so cold and tlue,
Stood clear against the sky,
But should we e'er their submits gain,
sly Heart and I.
Despairing, still We struggled on,
Though strength and courage failed,
And wintry SHOWS beat all around,
And storm-winds wildly wailcd
But hope and power were spent at last,
We only prayed to die,
For death, at least, is rest, We said,

Then like the sweet, remembered strain
OF a mothers cradle-song,
Came the voice Of the Almighty One,
Unheard, neglected long
"Fear not, for am near, b" It said.
We felt His presence nigh,
And so a great peace came to us,
