"IS IT SUNDAY."
'What is that Lady doing there,
In such a posture?' Anna cried:
The lady kneels in humble prayer,'
Her sister Bell replied.
Young Anna's silken lashes fell,
'You say the lady kneels in prayer,
To-day you know is Friday, Bell,
And is it Sunday there.
"Oh, sister dear, can no one pray
At any other time as well?
Must Sunday be the only day?"
Said thoughtful Isabel.
"I should be very sad, if I,
Who sorrow almost every day
For something wrong, must wait and
sigh,
Till Sunday comes, to pray.
"When I have erred in deed or word,
And tears arise and blind my eye,
My heart and lips with prayer are
stirred,
Till I forget to sigh.
"When softly on my downy bed
I wake and find the morning there,
I think whose smile that morning
made;
And speak to God in prayer.
"When day's bright door is shut, I
know
Whose viewless hand forbids her
beam,
And dare not to my slumber go,
Till I have prayed to Him.
"Oh, sister dear, no matter where,
No matter what the hour of day,
The solemn eve, the morning fair
'Tis always good to pray."
