THE GIFT OF GOD.

By T. Edgar Jones

EACH night is followed by its day, Each storm by fairer weather, While all the works of nature sing Their psalms of joy together. Then learn, O heart, their songs of hope! Cease, soul, thy thankless sorrow; For though the clouds be dark to-day, The sun shall shine to-morrow; Learn well, from bird and tree and rill, The sins of dark resentment; And know the greatest gift of God Is faith and sweet contentment.
—T. Edgar Jones, in Boston Traveller.
