His way,
With head low bowed, and eyes bent on the
ground;
And though the noisy crowd reVile and mock,
lie heeds no taunt; He answers with no word.
In all the well springs of His life, no thought
OF self had place. The sins, the burdens-yea
The grief of others were His only care;
Ills gricfs-the sins lie could not comprehend.
Yet well lie knew the sacrifice was His,
And that He bore the burden of their sins:
For He was @~uiltlcss rs the spotless lamb
The emblem of the sacrifice of yoIe.
On to the Mount of Calvary He toiled,
Stin blessing and forgiving as He passed.
oh! We who deem that through your sacrifice
A nobler life for others will be Won:
Press on, Your sacrifice is not in vain;
Bear still, oh woman's heart! your saddest
grief;
Break not, though hopes and selfish joys be
slain;
| And though The r,hhle shout and hurl their
scorn,
And though for praise your need be hittergali,
Faint not, for others is your burden borne.

The sacrifice for mankind has been made
And met with idle jeers and SCOTS and scorn:
With heavy crosses, and with crowns of
thorn.
But right must triumph. and the crown of
thorns,
Which nc brave hand did lift 10 ward of pain,
HaS turned 10 giittering gold; and lie who had
Not where 10 lay His head, sits on a Throne.
