Gods Work Goes On.


Sod's work goes on in spite OF war and famine,
The dreaded pcstilencc, or bancful blight.
In spite OF all the selfish greed OF mammon
That tolls amid the shadows OF the night;
In spite OF evil hearts ana hands cssaying
To crush the temple that we build upon,
The law and order SO divine obcying.
Cnmorcd BY mans dcyicc-Cod's work goes
on
Not always in y radiance OF splcndor
The brilliant daz2iinl, OF the noonGay sum-
but III an atmosphere serene and tender
his migh'icSt miracles arc daily done:
AND though ort-sightcd and dull-wittcd NOR
tails
Themselves against Ills majesty array
Nor give Him entrance through the hearts
closed portals,
Gods work goes on, and will not make delay.
No human power can interrupt; lis mission;
AS well attempt the planets 10 remove,
Or change single star from the position
II holds amid the galaxy above:
And so when all our plans prove unavailing,
Nhcli BUSY hands and throDbng hearts are
siillcd.
Doubt not. but rest assured that still unfailing
Gods work goes on-His plans are all full
filed.

You fcilers from tho country--when you strike

And the roarin' Of the city, with its engines an,

So little OF its sorrow, of its tears, and OF its
