ADMONITION AND ENCOURAGEMENT.
Sought thee wandering, set thee right,
Turned thy darkness into light.
<5 ‘Can a woman’s tender care
Cease towards the child she bear ?
Yes, she may forgetful be,
Yet will I remember thee.
4 ‘Mine is an unchanging love,
Higher than the heights above;
Deeper than the depths beneath,
Free and faithful, strong as death.
5 ‘Thou shalt see my glory soon ;
When the work of grace is done;
Partner of my throne shalt be ;
Say, poor sinner, lov’st thou me?
6 Lord it is my chief complaint,
That my love’s so weak and faint;
Yet I love thee, and adore;
O for grace to love thee more !
395 C. M.
Di vine fellowship.
1 FROM all that’s mortal, all that’s vain*
r And from this earthly clod,
Arise, my soul, and strive to gain
Sweet fellowship with God.
2 Say, what is there beneath the skies,
Wherever thou hast trod,
Can suit thy wishes or thy joys,
Like fellowship with God ?
3 Not life, nor all the toys of art,
Nor pleasure’s flowery road,
Can to my soul such bliss impart,
As fellowship with God.
