Easter Hymn.
4 TRAN STATION.

The glad morn leaps from east to west,
Aud others depths with rapture glow,
Earth triumphS in her inmOSt breast,
And deep hell Inuttereth in her woe.
It's for our Kings triumphant deeds,
lie breaks hell'S power and Satan'S might,
And forth the line of Patriar'hS leads,
Into Tree air and upper light.
Nainly the tomb wherein He lies
Men watch and Seal-behod Him rise!
And as He rises thence, inter
Death 5 self in that same Sepulchre.
Henccforth, farewell funereal fears,
Welcome To Hope, farewell all fears!
For bark! the Angels voice rings clear:
Seek not the risen Jesus here.
Jesus! our souls are glad to-day;
Come Thou, and dwell our breasts within,
And that our joy forever stay.
Raise us with Thee from death and sin.

One year has passed since from our midst
There went Il brother dear,
Who from among u- will he missed
For many coming year
One year since that loved voice hgsled
So Suddenly in d"ath.
That not parting word was given
Ere he RESIGNED his breath.
Nor did we ned single word
To tell us all was we'll:
We knew that hc had gone to heaven,
Ever with God to dwell.
Not WEAKNESS from daily toll,
Nor clouds, cold nor heat.
Could makr within the house of God,
For him vacant seat.
How much we've missed his earnest prayers,
His glad Triumphant shout,
Which from lis lips and heart We heard
So oft ring gladly ont!
And It'll we seen, 10 hear his voice
So full Of carncstuess.
Urging his lass To greater heights,
10 perfect holiness
Now he has gained the celestial height
" pogf.ct peace and rest,
He wait to welcome us zach one
Up there among the blest.
Already has a sister dear
Been welcomed there by him.
Together in naradiEe,
They with God shut in.
And now loved wife and daugh dear,
And frien,.s, and classmates, too,
Press onward upward still your way.
He's waiting there for you.
And when all get home above,
Together will praise
The worthy name of God our King
For His free, matcheSs grace.

ships, their exposure and neglect, called
forth the best powers of his cultivated
intellect, his warm heart and incessant
efforts for their temporal elevation and
eternal good. During the past year his
fidelity and faithfulness here has been
gracously rewarded. Eternity alone Will
