Lead the Way

By M. E. Yergin

M. E. YERGIN
"Speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward."
THERE'S a world awaits the action of to-day; Many millions anxious now to know the way From a woe too deep to tell, From a foe they can not quell, From the bands and thrall of hell. Up! why wait a moment longer? Lead the way!
Mercy's hour is near its closing; soon the world Into death's long, hopeless silence will be hurled. Seek the children in the gates, Where the hope of Israel waits; On their choosing hang their fates. Up! the soul who lingers dies. On! Lead the way!
On the battlements of heaven, in its gates, Host on host the angel army eager waits; Yea, the Spirit's mighty power Waits on us a little hour; If we linger, lost the dower; Up! the goodly land is ours. On! Lead the way!
Lead the way. Ho! God's coworkers, lead the way! Into darkness bring the light of heaven's day. Just once more the storm shall roar, A last time in fierceness pour, Then, forever, sin is o'er. On! Fair heaven shines before us! Lead the way!
Hinsdale, Ill.
