LILLIE GAY SHAW.
As days go by life seems the same
Still many changes come,
We always hope for better things
Vet say "Thy will be done. "
Friends that now about us cling
Are early called aw ay,
In sorrow with our senses dazed
We almost cease to pray.
l is hard to see our loved ones die
And leave us here to weep,
When human aid's of no avail
They sleep "their long last sleep. "
It but reminds, that mortals weak
Within themselves can't know,
The troubles now that on the way
They'll sufter ere they go.
We only look to Him who aids
Whose timely help is sure,
We realize our helplessness
And must his help secure.
In sorrow 's time of dark despair
We yield for want of power,
We need kind Heaven's Comforter
In every gloomy hour.
A sweet rose bloomed to gladden home
A ray of sunshine clear.
A bright and sparkling diadem
For home of earth, too pure.
The Master claimed this iewel bright
For earthly courts, too fair,
To bloom again in Heaven's realm
And breathe Celestial air.
We loved this dear child, reared as she was in our midst, a bright
example of Christian graces, and well equipped for the Master's work
nut ashamed to uphold a cause ever dear to her heart : it is sometimes
be oiid i. ur reasoning, when such bright examples are removed from
earth, but ihauks.be to an Allwise Father, "whom we know too good
t do wrong, and too wise to err."
"Good night," now cometh gentle sleep; and dreams that fall like
gentle ram. good night I oh, holy, blessed and deep, the rest that fol
lows pain' How should we reach God's upper light, if life's long day
had no "Good night."
