PRAYER AND FAITH

In this wartime of anxiety and
strenuous endeavor the following beau
tiful hymn of Charles Wesley appeals
to me:
God of Love-that nearest prayer,
Kindly for thy people care,
Who on Thee alone depend,
Love us-save US to the end.
save US i'm the prosperous hour
From the fattering tempter's power.
From his unsupported wiles-
From the worlds pernicrous smiles.
Never let the world break in.
Fix a mighty gulf between,
Keep us humble and unknown
Priced and loved by God alone.
Let us still to Thee look up.
Thee Thy Israers strength and hope
Nothing know or seek beside,
Jesus and Him crucifed.
Far above created things,
Look we down on earthly kings,
Taste our glorious liberty,
Find our happy all in Thee"
While the world is a-fire and earthly
kings are striving TO hold their realms
and estates-it is well for us Ameri-
cans to understand that God is in His
Heaven"
Christianity is being tested to the
limit, and the faith of believers in
Christianity is taxed also 10 the limit
those who believe that God is Omnipres-
ent as well as omniscent and omnipo-
tent, must concede that the Almighty
Ruler of heaven and of earth has per-
mitted this war of both hemispheres
to be brought into being and action,
and that the result will be Of His order
ing. when the end comes. Have we
sufficient faith to say in our hearts.
We alone on Thee depend.
Love us-saVe us to the end?'
