LABOUR ON 286 COME, labour on : Who dares stand idle
on the har vest plain, While all around him waves the golden grain ?
And to each servant does the Master say, "Go work to day." Come,
labour on : Claim the high calling angels cannot share ; To young
and old the joyful tidings bear ; Redeem the time ; its hours too
swiftly fly, The night draws nigh. Come, labour on : Away with
gloomy doubts and faithless fear ! No arm so weak but may do
service here ; By hands the feeblest can our God fulfil His righteous
will. Come, labour on : No time for rest till glows the western sky,
While the long shadows o'er our pathway lie, And a glad sound
comes with the setting sun, "Servants, well done!" Come, labour on
: The toil is pleasant, the reward is sure ; Blessed are those who to
the end endure ; How full their joy, how deep their rest shall be O
Lord, with Thee ! Jane L. Borthwick.

DISCIPLESHIP AND SERVTCE 287 0 HAPPY home, where
Thou art loved and dearest, Thou loving Friend, and Saviour of our
race, And where among the guests there never cometh One who can
hold such high and honoured place ! O happy home, where two in
heart united In holy faith, and blessed hope are one, Whom death a
little while alone divideth, And cannot end the union here begun ! O
happy home, whose little ones are given Early to Thee, in humble
faith and prayer, To Thee, their Friend, who from the heights of
heaven Guides them, and guards with more than mother's care ! O
happy home, where each one serves Thee, lowly, Whatever his
appointed work may be, Till every common task seems great and
holy, When it is done, O Lord, as unto Thee ! O happy home, where
Thou art not forgotten When joy is overflowing, full and free, O
happy home, where every wounded spirit Is brought, Physician,
Comforter, to Thee. Until at last, when earth's day's work is ended,
All meet Thee in the blessed home above, From whence Thou
earnest, where Thou hast ascended, Thy everlasting home of peace
and love ! C. J. P. Spit-tit, tr. Sarah L. Findlater.

WORDS OF POWER 288 A FITLY spoken word, XTL It hath
mysterious powers ; Its far-off echoes shall be heard Ringing
through future hours. An honest, truthful word, It has a tongue of
flame ; On wings of wind it flies abroad, And wins a heavenly fame.
A gentle, gracious word, 'Tis music in the heart ; Thrilling its very
inmost cord, Till tears unbidden start. Speak thou, then, lovingly, Out
of a Christ-like soul ; Thy words a blessed balm shall be, To make
the sin-sick whole. Speak, for the love of GodSpeak, for the love of
man ; The words of truth love sends abroad, Shall never be in vain.
G. B. Bubier 289 SIMPLY trusting every day, Trusting through a

the sands are flowing, One by one the moments fall ; Some are
coming, some are going, Do not strive to grasp them all. One by one
thy duties wait thee, Let thy whole strength go to each ; Let no
future dreams elate thee, Learn thou first what these can teach. One
by one bright gifts from heaven, Joys are sent thee here below ;
Take them readily when given, Ready, too, to let them go. One by
one thy griefs shall meet thee ; Do not fear an armed band ; One
will fade as others reach thee, Shadows passing through the land.

FROM HEIGHT TO HEIGHT Every hour that fleets so slowly
Has its task to do, to bear ; Luminous the crown, and holy, If thou

Reaching heaven ; but one by one Take them, lest the chain be
broken Ere the pilgrimage be done. A. A. Proctor. 291 IJ OR WARD !

Who shall dream of shrinking, By our Captain led ? Forward through
the desert, Through the toil and fight ; Jordan flows before us, Sion
beams with light. Forward, when in childhood Buds the infant mind ;
All through youth and manhood, Not a thought behind ; Speed
through realms of nature, Climb the steps of grace ; Faint not, till in
glory Gleams our Father's face. Forward, all the life-time, Climb from

night ; Forward through the darkness, Forward into light. Glories
upon glories Hath our God prepared, By the souls that love Him One

Nor of these hath utter'd Thought or speech a word ; Forward,
marching eastward, Where the Heav'n is bright, Till the veil be lifted,
Till our faith be sight, Far o'er yon horizon Rise the city towers,
Where our God abideth ; That fair home is ours : Flash the streets

Shedding joys untold.

Throne of light. Nought that city needeth Of these aisles of stone ;

know That fellowship of love His Spirit only can bestow Who reigns
in light above. Walk in the light, and sin abhorred Shall ne'er detile
again ; The blood of Jesus Christ thy Lord Shall cleanse from every
stain. Walk in the light, and thou shalt find Thy heart made truly His,
Who dwells in cloudless light enshrined, In whom no darkness is.
Walk in the light, and thou shalt own Thy darkness passed away ;
Because that light hath on thee shone, In which is perfect day. Walk
in the light, and e'en the tomb No fearful shade shall wear ; Glory
shall chase away its gloom, For Christ hath conquered there.

THE POWER OF SONG Walk in the light, and thine shall be
A path, though thorny, bright ; For God, by grace, shall dwell in
thee, And God Himself is light ! B. Barton 293 SING to the little
children, And they will listen well ; Sing grand and holy music, For
they can feel its spell. Sing at the cottage bedside — They have no
music there ; And the voice of praise is silent After the voice of
prayer. Sing of the gentle Saviour In the simplest hymns you know,
And the pain-dimmed eye will brighten, As the soothing verses flow.
When you long to bear the message Home to some troubled breast,
Then sing with loving fervour, " Come unto Me, and rest." Sing when
His mighty mercies And marvellous love you feel, And the deep joy
of gratitude Springs freshly as you kneel. Sing on in grateful
gladness ! Rejoice in this good thing Which the Lord thy God hath
given thee : The happy power to sing. Anon.

DISCIPLESHIP AND SERVICE 294 T IFE is onward— use it
JLj With a forward aim : Toil is heavenly— choose it, And its warfare
claim. Look not to another To perform your will, Let not your own
brother Keep your warm hand still. Life is onward— never Dwell
upon the past, It would hold you ever In its clutches fast. Now is
your dominion — Wear it as you please, Bind not the soul's pinion To
a bed of ease. Life is onward — try it Ere the day is lost ; It hath
virtue— try it At whatever cost. Hope and joy together, Standing at
the goal, Through life's darkest weather, Beckon on the soul. Anon.

THE NATURAL HABITUDE If there be some weaker one,
Give me strength to help him on ; If a blinder soul there be, Let me
guide him nearer Thee. Make my mortal dreams come true, With the
work I fain would do : Clothe with life the weak intent, Let me be
the thing I meant. Out of self to love be led, And to heaven
acclimated ; Until all things sweet and good Seem my natural
habitude. J. G. Whittier. 296 WITHOUT haste and without rest " ;
Bind the motto to thy breast, Bear it with thee as a spell ; Storm or
sunshine, guard it well ; Heed not flowers that round thee bloom ;
Bear it onward to the tomb. Haste not : let no thoughtless deed Mar
the spirit's steady speed ; Ponder well and know the right, Onward
then with all thy might ; Haste not — years can ne'er atone For one
reckless action done ! Rest not : life is sweeping by, Do and dare
before you die ; Something worthy and sublime Leave behind to
conquer time ; Glorious 'tis to live for aye, When these forms have
passed away.

rpHE sower went forth sowing, JL The seed in secret slept Through
weeks of faith and patience, Till out the green blade crept ; And
warm'd by golden sunshine, And fed by silver rain, At last the fields
were whiten'd To harvest once again. O praise the heavenly Sower,
Who gave the fruitful seed, And watch'd and water 'd duly, And
ripen'd for our need. Behold ! the heavenly Sower Goes forth with
better seed, The Word of sure Salvation, With Feet and Hands that
bleed ; Here in His Church 'tis scatter'd Our spirits are the soil ; Then
let an ample fruitage Repay His pain and toil. Oh, beauteous is the
harvest Wherein all goodness thrives, And this the true thanksgiving,
The first-fruits of our lives.

even now they ripen In sunny Paradise. O summer land of harvest,
O fields for ever white With souls that wear Christ's raiment, With
crowns of golden light ! One day the heavenly Sower Shall reap
where He hath sown, And come again rejoicing, And with Him bring
His own ; And then the fan of judgment Shall winnow from His floor
The chaff into the furnace That flameth evermore. O holy, awful

LIFE'S CHOICE We toil as in a field, Wherein, to us
unknown, A treasure lies concealed, Which may be all our own: And
shall we of the toil complain That speedily will bring such gain ? We
dig the wells of life, And God the water gives ; We win our way by
strife, Then He within us lives ; And only war could make us meet
For peace so sacred and so sweet. T. T. Lynch. 300 ONCE to every
man and nation comes the moment to decide, In the strife of Truth
with Falsehood, for the good or evil side ; Some great cause, God's
new Messiah, offering each the bloom or blight, Parts the goats
upon the left hand and the sheep upon the right, And the choice
goes by for ever 'twixt that darkness and that light. Then to side
with Truth is noble, when we share her wretched crust, Ere her
cause bring fame and profit, and 'tis prosperous to be just ; Then it
is the brave man chooses, while the coward stands aside,
