4 PRAYER.

Teach me, Father, how to go
Softly as the grasses grow;
Hush my soul to meet the shock
OF the wild world as a rock;
But my Spirit, propt with power,
Make as simple as a flower.
Let the dry heart fill it's cup,
Like q poppy looking up;
Let life lightly wear her crown,
Like poppy looking down,
When its heart is filled with dew,
Ard It's life begins anew.
Teach me, Father, how to be
Kind and patient as tree.
Joyfully the crickets Groom
Under shady oak at noon;
Beetle, on his mission bent,
Tarries In that cooling tent.
Let me, also, cheer a spot,
Hidden field or garden grot-
Place where passing souls can rest
On the way and be their best.
