THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GREETING.

By J. H. V. B.

[J. H. V. B., in Western Christian Advocate.]

THE floweret standing by thy path, And brushing 'gainst thy feet, It is, if it doth touch thy heart, From God a greeting sweet.

And if the bird in tree-top sings, And makes thy joy complete, So is that song which clearly rings From God a greeting sweet.

The morning glow, the evening shine, The river's silvery wave— These all can be, my child, for thee, A greeting which God gave,

In blossom's fragrance, zephyr's breath, He greeteth thee alway. Who greeteth us we always thank, So thank your God each day.
