LET US FOLLOW JESUS.

SHALL we not follow where his feet have trod? And by an humble love, and faith sincere, Approach the likeness of the Son of God? His life is with us, and his quickening word; Shall these be hidden from our daily sight? Or only 'neath the temple arches heard? Or dreamed of in the still, inactive night.
O no! his holy lessons shall be learned, By wayside connings, in our daily walk, And as the hearts of his disciples burned When listening, as they journeyed, to his talk. So shall our hearts be thrilled, our souls subdued, By the deep wisdom of his gentle speech, Until with light and peace and love imbued, His kingdom and his rest divine we reach.
