ETERNAL LIFE.

By A. Kinne

"Life! life!—eternal life!"—BUNYAN
HEED not the Tempter's siren voice, A deep with dangers rife; Mortal! thou hast a better choice— Life, life, eternal life.
Oh, shun the world's bewitching snare, Its fever and its strife; Mortal! thou hast a nobler share— Life, life, eternal life.
Seek not for gold, 'tis shining dust, Its love with evil rife; Mortal! thou hast a nobler trust— Life, life, eternal life.
Like Abrah'm, hast thou faith to bear The sacrificial knife? Then with the faithful shalt thou share Life, life, eternal life.
For love of God, canst thou lay down Thy life 'mid hottest strife? Then hast thou won a starry crown— Life, life, eternal life.—A. Kinne.
