The bystander. [volume] (Des Moines, Iowa) 1916-1922, 1917-09-14

suppose we won't be so narrow in
heart as to not honor God in the
beauty of holiness after he has done
and is doing so much for US. God
watches over us and if we will be lead
right he will give US reward for his
names sake. Or else we will find our
selves being just what Victoria says
this girl is, "a Beaky."
The Lord gave me work to do
among my own race and I am endeav-
oring to go on, though broken rows
and disappointments sprinkle the path
but am not "A Beaky."
AS much as lieth in Samaria she has
kept the faith. The battle is told in
the book. The victory is yet to come.
There is nothing easy about it and yet
beloved God tells me to still fight on.
He is the royal captor and the heaven
his throne Of life. He gave me the
21st chapter of St. Luke. Said write
song Samaria from this chapter. The
tune will be the same tune as praise
His Name" We all know this tune
and it is found in Pentecostal Hymns,
Nos. 1 and 2 combined. Hymn No.
379. These are the words of the songs
and title:
For My Namesake."
Of a truth I say unto you, -.
For my namesake, for my namesake,
Take heed that ye be not deceived,
For my namesake, for my nam esake.
For many shall come in my name.
Go We not therefore after them;
What signs shall there be?
For my namesake, for my namesake.
Ye shall hear of wars and connections,
For my namesake, for my namesake,
Kingdoms rising against Kingdoms,
For my namesake, for my namesake.
Nations rising against nations,
And great earthquakes in divers
places,
Great signs shall there be,
For my namesake, for my namesake.
And pestilence and fearful sights from
heaven,
Tor my namesake, for my namesake.
They shall lay hands on you,
For my namesake, for my namesake.
Being brought before kings and rulers,
Delivering you up to the synagogues,
It shall turn to you for testimony
For my namesake, for my namesake.
Settle is therefore in your hearts,
Not to mediate, NJ to mediate,
For l shall give III mouth and wis
dom
Tor my namesake, for my namesake,
Which all your adversaries
Shall not be able to gainsay,
Shall not be able to resist,
For my namesake, for my namesake.
And ye shall be betrayed both by par
ents,
For my namesake, for my namesake.
And brethren and friends,
For my namesake, for my namesake.
ONE of you shall be put to death,
Not hair of your head shall perish,
Ye shall be hatred of all men,
For my namesake, for my namesake.
In your patience possess ye your souls
For my namesake, for my namesake.
When Jerusalem we see compasscd
with armies,
For my namesake, for my namesake.
Then look up and lift your heads,
For your redemption draweth nigh,
Heaven and earth shall pass away,
But my words shall not pass away.
We are so quick to judge very often
by wrong ideas. "Unity and Charity"
s the name Of the book God gave me
eor his namesake and for nearly four
years l have kept the faith and fought
the battle alone, expecting to win the
ictory for Christ. I have wrote
moving picture manuscript for this
work and the devils of the earth have
given me in return the beaky ha, ha.
Firms have turned me away on several
excuses, but common sense teaches me
the main reasons. The only fault in
some was I wanted it entirely illus
trated in colored poses. The fault
some found was the fault Victoria's
play found "Black" and that cause
yielded all kinds Of dirt. I take Isiah,
5sth chapter. 10th verse, to compare
deceitful excuse. It says: But the
