NATURES SONG ON EASTER

(By T.. l.. Jackson)

The morn broke forth with singing.

The world seemed flied with music,
MI gloom Of night was gone.
The hrccZcS we've assigning
low and joyous lay.
MI nature Joined them I'm the song.
''rhc Lord arose to-day"
Flowers OF sweetest fragrance,
Down in the grasses Ercw:
Insects with many varied tints,
Amidst their petals flew.
The buZzing bee on busy wing,
Gathering his treasured store,
In language all his own. proclaimed
His praises DER and DER.
The brook down in the meadow,
llummcd n low. cheerful song:
It's waters kissed the messy banks
And passed the tune along
SOFT brccZcS waiting onward.
Raised the sweet song on high,
TIL mid the waving trceiopS
II echoed to the sky.
The birds pcrchod in the Branches
Caught the infectious tune;
stretched their wee throats, and
Justify
Sang till the hours OF noon.
Shall birds and bees and flowers and
trees
Alone this day be glad.
This day when Christ defeated death,
That man need nc'cr be sad?
o man. wake from your slumbcr,
And list to natures song,
Then raise your voice, in all it's might
And bear the strain along.
Till angels with their harps OF gold,
Catching the thrilling. strain.
Shall shout with joy. for in the SONG
They'll hear the voice OF man.
