MISSION ASPIRATION.

By B. F. DeCosta

“Thy kingdom come.”
Kingdom of God! who would not be In that grand principality A subject, whose far shining days, Exhaustless, lapse in songs of praise? There love is law, and rules alone, Eternal as a crystal throne, Whose beams of clear, supernal light With endless day shut out the night; While joy pervades each tranquil breast, Brief toil exchanged for endless rest; Where peaceful banners float unfurled, In mem’ry of a conquered world. Kingdom of God! who would not be Crowned in that principality? —B. F. DeCosta.
