upon a billow, though IL may be tossed
up with might it goes down. He cried
to the winds, Hush! They knew his
voice. The waves knew his foot. They
died away. And in the shining track of
his feet / read these letters on scrolls
Of foam and fire, ''The earth shall be
filled with the knowledge Of God as tho
waters cover the sea-" Tho ocean

came more and more mild, until, on the
last morning out, the sun threw round
about US a glory such as l never wit
messed before. God made a pavement
of mosaic, reaching from horizon to hori-
zon, from all the splendors Of earth and
heaven TO walk upon-a pavement
bright enough for the foot Of a seraph-
bright enough for the wheels Of the
~archangel's chariot. AS a parent EN-.
braces a child, and kisses away its grief,
SO over that sea, that had been writhing
in agony in the tempest, the morning
threw its arms of beauty and of benedic-
ton, and the lips of earth and heaven
met.
As / came on deck-it was very early,
and we were nearing the shore-I saw q
few sails against the sky. They seemed
like the spirits Of the night walking the
pillows. | leaned over the taffrail Of the
vessel, and said, Thy way, o God is in
the sea, and thy path in the great
waters"
1t grew lighter. The clouds were
hung in purple clusters along the sky;
and is as il those purple clusters were
pressed into red wine and poured out
upon the sea, every wave turned into
crimson. Yonder, fire cleft stood oppo.
site to fire cleft; and here, a cloud, rent
and tinged with light, seemed III a
palace, with flames bursting from the
windows. The whole scene lighted
up until it seemed as II the angels OF
God were ascending and descending
upon stairs of fire, and the wavecrests,
changed into jasper, and crystal, and
amethyst, as they were flung toward the
beach, made me think OF the crowns of
heaven cast before the throne of thegreas
Jehovah. / leaned over the taffrail
again, and said, with more emotion than
before: Thy way, o God, is in the
sea, and thy path in the great waters"
So, l thought, will be the going of Of
the storm and night of the Christians
life. The darkness will fold its tents
and away! The golden feet of the rising
morn will come skipping upon the
mountains, and all the wrathful pillows
OF the worlds woe break into the splen-
dor of eternal Joy. And SO We come
into the harbor. The cyclone
behind US. Our friends be-
fore US. God, who is always good, all
around US. And if the roll Of the crew
and the passengers had been called,
seven hundred souls would have answer
ed to their m "And so it came to
pass that we all escaped safe to land"
And may God grant that, when all our
Sabbaths on earth are ended, we may
find that, through the rich mercy of
u Lord Jesus Christ, we all have
weathered the gale!
Into the harbor of heaven now we glide,
Home at last
Softly we drift on the bright silver tide,
Home at last
Glory to God All our dangers are DER;
We stand secure on the glorifed shore.
Glory to Godl we will shout evermore.
Home at last
Home at last!
