TO THE AGED.

BY ELIZA H. MORTON.
O AGED pilgrim on the way, Rejoicing in the Lord, Know ye the truth for this thy day, And render praise to God.
Full many crosses ye have borne, And now new light is shed Along thy path, and Jesus holds A crown above thy head.
Fear not the taunting face of clay; Leave prejudice behind; God's word alone, thy staff, thy stay; Let not tradition bind.
The Sabbath of Jehovah shows What Jesus is to thee, Creator, Saviour, help divine, Oh, let him ever be!
And floods of light with crimson gleams Will tinge thy sunset sky, And glory shine from heaven's gates, And angels hover nigh.
