ALONG THE WAY.

There are so many helpful things to do Along life's way (Helps to the helper, if we did but know), From day to day. So many troubled hearts to soothe, So many pathways rough to smooth, So many comforting words to say To hearts that falter along the way!

Here is a lamp of hope gone out Along the way. Some one stumbled and fell, no doubt— But, brother, stay! Out of thy store of oil refill, Kindle the courage that smolders still, Think what Jesus would do to-day For one who had fallen beside the way.

How many lifted hands still plead Along life's way! The old, sad story of human need Reads on for aye. But let us follow the Saviour's plan,— Love unstinted to every man! Content if, at most, the world should say, “He helped his brother along the way.”
