CONVERSION.

By Ella Cornish

O God, I am undone; for I have seen Thy righteousness, and know that I am vile, Unjust, impure, condemned, by sin, to death. But, O my God, forgiveness is with Thee; For Thou art merciful, compassionate, And very slow to anger. O my God, Forgive my sin, I pray; cleanse Thou my guilt, And work in me Thy works of truth and love; No merit to Thy favor can I claim; I ask it only in my Saviour's name.

O wondrous change, O mighty miracle! That I, once dead in trespasses and sin, Am now alive in Christ to righteousness; Yea, more, my life is hid with God in Him, And naught can separate me from His love. In tribulation, famine, and distress, In trials, mockings, bonds, imprisonments, In life or death, things present or to come, I'm more than conqueror through Christ my Lord. Asylum, Neb. ELLA CORNISH.
