FAITH—HOPE—LOVE,

By Mary E. Guilford

I've trod the narrow pathway long, While many thorns have pierced my feet; Yet faith grows bright, and hope more strong, And love makes all my joys complete.
Yet still more narrow grows the way; I scarce can trace the dim outline, As on I press from day to day, The steep and rugged hill to climb.
Shall courage fail, or hope grow dim, When darkness gathers round my way? No; Christ has bid me look to him, And he will guide my steps alway.
Bright hope shall buoy my spirits up, And faith shall be my armor bright, And love shall mingle in the cup I drink, while passing through the night.
Thy word, O God, my lamp shall be, To guide my erring feet aright; A light to point my soul to thee, Until I reach the land of light.
MARY E. GUILFORD.
