TRUST IN THE LORD.

By J. M. Bennett

BY J. M. BENNETT.
In peace and in gladness, In billows of sorrow, In joy or in sadness, On life's ocean wave, Stand firm in the right, Though the change of to-morrow Is gleaming with sunshine, Or as dark as the grave.
Remember the hairs of Your head are all numbered; Your thoughts in the balance Of justice are weighed; There is nothing that's wakened From where it has slumbered That has not received From the Master its aid.
Why grieve o'er past trials? All wrongs will be righted By the Father that notes E'en the frail sparrow's fall. At the sound of his voice The just are delighted; They receive their reward At the last trumpet call.
They hail their great King, Their Saviour and Master; He breaks all their bonds Of death, sin, and strife; He frees them from death, Brought by Adam's disaster; He clothes them with robes Of his immortal life.
