REST IN HEAVEN.

By Sam. Ward Trump

WHEN in the midst of your day's weary toiling, And on your shoulders the burden doth bear, Stop not to rest tho the hot sun be boiling, For there's a long rest for you over there.

E'en tho you're friendless, despised, and forsaken, There is a joy in the truths of God's Word; And when God's census at last shall be taken, You shall be numbered a child of the Lord.

Probation is closing—be up and a-doing, The third angel's message to the world's being given; Push up to the front, your duty pursuing, There's a work here on earth, the reward is in heaven.
