Sacred memories are born;

Tell it to everything that blows,
To every spring-tide flower that grows,
On. blow, We lilies, blow away.

Blow We lilies. blow and sway.

Tell all men the olden story,
Oh. blow ye lilies, blow and sway,

THE JOY or THE LORD.

The coming of joy into our hearts may
be INSTRUCTED by an unfortunate habit
OF choosing to dwell upon the shadows
rather than upon the sunshine Of life
Our heavenly Father does not wish TO
deal with His children always as with
the rod ofchastsement. He knows we
all need to be cheered by the evidence
Of His approval. II is the sign Of human
weakness TO treat our offspring with
unrelieved strokes of discipline But
our divine Father never commits such on
error in the government of His children.
Love prompts Him to inspire confidence
by tender appeals and supreme goodness.
He would say: Child of earth. look up,
