Page Four Weekly Devotional I Column By James Mackenzie Do you remember the great Scot tish comedian, Sir. Harry Lauder? The other day I heard someone whist ling one of his catchy little melodies, and my mind went back to boyhood days, when my dad would take me on his knee, affect a rollicking Scotch accent and sing Roamin’ in the Gloam in’, The Waggle o the Kilt, or, per haps, It’s Nice to Get up in the Morn in’, but it’s Nicer to Lie in Bed. One evening in Toronto, during the first world war, as Sir Harry step ped on the stage to sing one of his lilting songs, he was handed a tele gram informing him that his son, John, had been killed in action. The orchestra in the pit began the over ture, but Lauder motioned them to stop. With tear-dimmed eyes he read the telegram to the vast audience as sembled there. Then alone, without accompaniment, he began to sing the following: O where and o where has my hielan’ laddie gone? He has gone to fight the foe for the king upon the throne; And it’s o in my hairt that I wish him safe at home. Lauder managed to maintain his composure until he reached the words: Suppose and suppose that your hie lan’ lad should die ? The bagpipes would play over him, and I’d lay me doon and cry; And it’s o in my hairt that I wish he may not die; when he broke down completely. Yet, out of his sorrow, Lauder emerged by far the most popular comic of his day, became the first en tertainer to visit the front lines in France, and, in 1919, was knighted by the King of England, the first mem ber of his profession to be so honored. Someone once asked Sir Harry how he could “carry” on as a comedian when his heart was so laden with sorrow. “When confronted with sor row a man will do one of three things,” replied Lauder: “he will sour on the world and give over to despair; he will seek solace in drink; or he will turn to God. I have turned to God.” Lauder was right. Though sorrow encompass us, there is courage and strength to be found in the God of all comfort, and in His promise to Christians that someday, in a better land than this, He will wipe away all tears from our eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying (Revelation 21:4). I can call to mind another Harry Lauder song that goes something like this: Keep right on to the end of the road, Keep right on to the end; Though the way be long, Let your heart be strong, Keep right on ’round the bend; If you tire and weary, Still journey on, ’Til you come to your happy abode; And all you love, and are dreaming of, Will be there at the end of the road. • PRESBYTERIAN SERVICES The Rev.
