The Rose Still Crows
Beyond The Wall
iin
Near shady wall a rose once grew,
Budded and blossomed in God's free light,
Watered and fed by morning dew,
Shedding its sweetness day and night.
As it grew and blossomed fair and tall,
. Slowly rising to loftier height,
It came to a crevice in the wall,
Through which, there shone a beam of light...
' '
Onward it crept with added strength,
With never.a thought of fear or pride;
It followed the light through the crevioe-tength
And unfolded itself on the other slde:
Shall claim oA death caw? us to grieve
And make our courage faint or fall?
Nay, lef us faith and hope receive;
The rose still grows-beyond the wall.
