Joyful in Him

By WORTHIE HARRIS HOLDEN

WORTHIE HARRIS HOLDEN
THERE'S a whisper in the treetops, There is music by the sea, There's a murmur, mid the rushes, Of the brook across the lea;
There's a voice from wingèd flowers,— Hum of hopper and of bee,— And a myriad-throated warble From the feathered minstrelsy.
O, the night is one sonata, And the day a chorus grand; And our life a glorious anthem When our Master has command!
For the minor chords, though plaintive, Lend enchantment to the strain, And the final hallelujah Shall in joy engulf all pain.
Tune thy heart to sense the measure; Train thine ear to hear each chord; Every day conclude some measure All harmonious to thy Lord.
Portland, Ore.
