SONG OF HOPE.

By Mary A. Lathbury

CHILDREN of yesterday, Heirs of to-morrow, What are you weaving? Labor and sorrow? Look to your looms again; Faster and faster Fly the great shuttles Prepared by the Master; Life’s in the loom, Room for it—room!
Children of yesterday, Heirs of to-morrow, Lighten the labor And sweeten the sorrow, Now, while the shuttles fly Faster and faster. Up and be at it— At work with the Master. He stands at your loom, Room for Him—room!
Children of yesterday, Heirs of to-morrow, Look at your fabric Of labor and sorrow. Seamy and dark With despair and disaster, Turn it—and lo, The design of the Master! The Lord’s at the loom, Room for Him—room!
—Mary A. Lathbury, in Christian Advocate.
