NM THOUGHTS.

Ny thoughts are sailing out TO good
As little barges at sea
10 bring me back the needful food
That God provides FOR me.
Sly thoughts are rising DER the tide
or human woes and fears
To lead me where I shall abide
With God through all my years.
Nv thoughts are turning down each pag,
That should forgotten be,
10 show me inst mg true image
Reflected love, In Thee.
Ny thoughts relax as l draw near
70 Being mhnltei
And set me free from bondage here
THAT ne'er can bind Thy might
My thoughts are safe whene'er they dwell
In God eteFnallg
Their weight and power snone can tel
For love iuteFprets me.
