God and a Day

Consider but this single day's demands,
Its dower of work, its wage of smiles and tears!
So rich with opportunity it stands!
One day, with God, is as a thousand years.

But, when the clock of time shall cease to beat,
And Heaven's high call our answering hearts obey,
There waits a service and a rest so sweet
A thousand years shall pass as one bright day.

EDWARD A. CHURCH. In The Christian Register.


Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul; and the heart of man knoweth none more fragrant.

HOSEA BALLOU.
