THE CONFLICT.

By J. W. Stein

None who will have truth and life Can be conquered in the strife; All who choose the right and good Find sufficient help in God; Angels, nature, earth, and sky, Needed, to their rescue fly. Tho all evil them withstand, Naught can pluck them from God's hand. Courage, brother! Dost thou choose Life to gain and death to lose? Then be strong; all wisdom, might, Promise to defend the right.

Heav'n will vindicate thy name, Shift thy poverty and shame, Give thee love and life and rest And all good—God knoweth best. Onward, brother, toward the light, In His wisdom, in His might. Upward, then, and heaven prove. Thou hast life, and thou hast love.
