TELL TO THE WORLD THE STORY.

Awake, O church of God! arise! Put on thy garments white,— The garments of his righteousness, And Christ shall give thee light; He'll “purely purge away the dross And take away the tin.” Why linger in the valleys When we the heights may win?
Tell to the world the story, Altho 'tis written plain, That Christ, the Prince of glory, Is coming soon again; The signs that mark his coming In thunder tones declare; The western sun is sinking, The day of God is near.
The story of his love repeat; O, tell it yet once more To sinners who have heard it Many, many times before! It may be that some gem of light From out the casket fair Will shine into a darkened mind, And find a welcome there.
