Written for THE EVENING JOUR
NAL by James T. Crozier.

'Tis blessed to be on the Gospel train,
Are you safely on board, my friend
And bound for that city of mansions
lair,
Where your JOY shall never end.
We are told, my friend, there is no
night there,
And flowers are ever in bloom,
No sickness, no sorrow, pain or death,
In that land will ever come.
We are safe always while we're on the
road
If our faith and trust are right,
For God will care for us each and all,
If we travel by faith-not sight.
Our souls will be blest with spiritual
food
In meetings of class and prayer,
They are wayside stops on our journey
home,
And are sweet till we get up there.
Our passage is paid for the whole way
through
BY our Saviour, Redeemer and Friend,
And naught is required from any on
board,
But love till the journey shall end.
Then, ii You are not OH the train today,
trust you will thing it best
To secure your place without any delay
And obtain His sweet promise of rest
pT,. .,.oo;o,,- g. t-uo,. NO oro ~, out

Some day we will all understand
Much better the blessings that come tC

Oh, the Joy that comes to the children
of God
No matter where they may be,
To know that with Jesus and loved ones
gone.
We shall spend all eternity.
