FAITHFUL SERVICE.

By Silver Cross

Not to be always wanting Some other work to do, But cheerfully to take the task Which Christ has set for you, And to bear the little crosses Of humble daily life
With that same dauntless courage You meant for nobler strife; And to share the yoke with Jesus, Wherever he may lead— Whether in pleasant pastures His tender flocks to feed,
Or whether upon the mountains His bloodstains mark your way, Only to follow him meekly, And to follow all the day. So, soul, you'll be the winner When this day's work is done, And better fitted for labor When to-morrow greets the sun.
— Silver Cross.
