THE BIBLE.

BY F. E. BELDEN.
O holy book of truth divine, Eternal as thy Maker’s name, Through countless ages of decline Thy glowing truths have stood the same!
The dust of time is on thy page, Yet dims no pure and hallowed thought. In every clime, in every age, Have saints thy holy comfort sought.
Thou art the life, the joy, the light, The hope of trusting thousands here, Whose faith shall find eternal sight Beyond this dreary mortal sphere.
O wondrous lamp of promise sweet, Thy light illumes the trusting soul With glory that shall be complete When days and years have ceased to roll!
