THIS WORLD IS NAUGHT.

By A. Eliza Buckland

This world I count as naught but dross, As oft I view the blessed cross; The yoke is easy, burden light, The law of God is my delight.
I love to serve my blessed Lord, I love his truths and love his word; I'll cast on Jesus every care; His blessed cross by grace I'll bear.
His presence makes me truly bless'd, And on his promises I'll rest; His presence makes my heart rejoice Whene'er I hear his cheering voice.
My soul doth magnify the Lord, My hopes are on his holy word; When Jesus comes, O may I be Clothed with bright immortality. A. Eliza Buckland.
