COME INTO THE SUNLIGHT.

By Eliza H. Morton

BY ELIZA H. MORTON.
WHY sit in the deepening shadows When the heavens are aglow for thee? There's warmth in the brilliant sunshine And a promise of things to be; Each ray in its gorgeous brightness, As it lingers about thy feet, Is a chord in a perfect anthem, Is a melody most sweet.
That song is the song of nature, And thy heart may be catching the tune Of winds, and of rippling streamlets, Of the birds and sounds of June.
O, come where the star-flowers blossom, Where the pinks and the roses grow, O, come where, with faith and courage, You can look on the vale below.
O, come where the sun is beaming, Till the earth with its light is o'erspread, O, come where the angels linger, And the glory of God is shed.
North Deering, Me.
