EXPERIENCE AND HOPE.

By Mary E. Guilford

Weary, worn, and tired of staying Where abides no lasting peace, We are watching, waiting, praying, For the day of sweet release.
Omens of that day now nearing, Fill our hearts with grateful praise; Hope, our languid spirits cheering, Chants her sweet, melodious lays.
Faith grows strong amid the darkness, Joy lights up the deepening gloom, Heaven’s bright smile dispels our sadness, Peace to all yields sweet perfume.
Soon shall end all bitter mourning; Soon shall cease all sin and strife; Earth be robed with fair adorning, Saints be crowned with endless life.
MARY E. GUILFORD.
