THE RESTING DAY.

BY D. E. W.
Faithful workers in God's vineyard, Look! the fields are white to-day; Onward, then, renew thy courage, Soon will come the resting day.
Though thy labor may seem fruitless, *Sow in faith along the way; Hark! the earth groans 'neath the harvest Of the ripened grain to-day.
Not in vain shall be thy labor; Heaven knows thy anxious care; Onward, then, with greater fervor, Venture forth to do and dare.
Though the seed thy tears may water, Precious are they in His sight; Though thy heart may faint, ne'er falter; Look to Him and trust His might.
Soon thy labor will be ended, All thy cares be done away. Oh, how sweet the precious promise Of the blessed resting day!
Then, with courage failing never, In faith the Master's word obey; Keep thy heart uplifted ever. Soon will come the resting day.
