The Search for Faith.

An angel Of light, from the mansions above.
Came once on an GRAND Of mercy and love.
The task was. to find il the work OF the Lord
Had borne the rich fruitage Of faith In his word.
Whether hearts that were blessed with the
works Of His Grace
Had opened their portals and given him place !:
Or Whether the enemies works had Outgrown
The seed of the truth which the Saviour had
sOvn.
Meath pillar and dome, in solemn array
The multitude gathered each fair Sabbath day,
Where music and incense ascend to the skies,
Where beauty and grandeur both dazzle the
eyes,
And prayer is intoned with precision and care,
Where perfume and fragrance float out on the
air.
Our messenger first, mid the worshiping throng
Thought the jewel Of faith in the prayer or
the song.
But alas, twas in vain, for the heavenly light
Which shown from the eyes Of the messenger
Bright,
Revealed such confusion, such darkness and
sin
In the hearts Of the multitude gathered within,
That soaring aloft DER the song and the prayer
Afraid to continue the search for ii there,
The angel declared that the jewel OF faith
Could never be found in such a dark place
And next to the modern churches, he repaired,
Where all who were worshiping there had de-
clared
That Others were wrong in their faith and their
work,
And that in formality error must Turk.
That they, alone knew the true worship OF God,
All others must pass cath his frown and his
rod.
But the angel declared that no faith could be
found,
That their songs and their worship were elo-
quent sound.
Now the angel about to give DER in dispair,
And back to his heavenly home to repair,
Was drawn by the spirit away from the din,
From the noise and confusion Of error and sin,
To spot where the lowly and humble repair
To pour out their spirits in penitent prayer.
Bright angels Of mercy were near and around,
The spot where they worshiped was hallowed
ground.
With glad hearts and voices the people declare
BY faith in the Saviour in answer to prayer,
They knew and believed he was present to
save
That gave them the victory DER death and the
grave.
And the angel shadOwed his face with his wing
And Joined in the praises the worshipers sing
To him who had caused them to triumph DER
death,
He had found what he sought for-thc jewel Of
faith.
