Dear NJ b. Friends:
nice personal letter from aunt
Sue" contains some good news, which
l gladly share with you all. She
writes After two months in Mime
apolis, where a fine doctor has given
me great help, we go back this week,
and | feel it is to renewed interest in
life So often l come across a poem
or quotation and say to myself, how
fine for the NJ. b. Column; I'll send it
right away But the article is not
sent,> because | wait to send with it
a message. Now, after this, l won't do
that"
With her letter, Aunt Sue enclosed
the Easter program of Plymouth
church, Minneapolis, and marked
few verses of the hymn beginning
For all the saints who from their
labors rest" and 1 am making use of
them as our poem for this week.
And when the strife is fierce, the
warfare long,
Steals on the ear the distant triumph
|. song,
And hearts are brave again, and arms
are strong, ,
The golden evening brightens in the
West;
Soon. soon to faithful warriors cometh
rest;
Sweet is the calm of Paradise, the
Alleluia!
But To-. there breaks yet more
glorious day;
The saints triumphant rise III prieh'
array;
The King of Glory passes on HIS way
From earth's wide bounds, from
oceans farthest coast;
Through gates of pearl streams in the
countless host,
Singing to Father, Son ana Holy
Ghost.
