THE ETERNAL CROSS.

By Walter C. Smith

But all through life I see a cross, Where sons of God yield up their breath; There is no gain except by loss, There is no life except by death; There is no vision but by faith, Nor glory but by bearing shame, Nor justice but by taking blame; And that Eternal Passion saith, “Be emptied of glory, right, and name.” — Walter C. Smith.
