LIVING TO GOD.

By Mrs. E. S. Armitage

O Lord of life and love and power, How joyful life might be If in thy service every hour We lived and moved with thee! If youth, in all its bloom and might, By thee were sanctified, And manhood found its chief delight In working at thy side!
’T is ne’er too late, while life shall last, A new life to begin; ’T is ne’er too late to leave the past, And break with self and sin. And we this day, both old and young, Would earnestly aspire For hearts to nobler purpose strong, And purified desire.
Nor for ourselves alone we plead, But for all faithful souls Who serve thy cause by word or deed, Whose names thy book enrolls. O speed thy work, victorious King! And give thy workers might, That through the world thy truth may ring, And all men see thy light!
—Mrs. E. S. Armitage.
