Lines on the death of Sister M. B. Craig.

By E. O. Lindsay

THERE are precious promises given, For the heart with its anguish torn, So that none without hope need sorrow, And comfortless weep and mourn.

The grave would indeed be cheerless, A cold inhospitable bed, If instead of above and beyond it. Our hope too went down with the dead.

But we know that the Life-giver Jesus, In a little from this shall come, The dead shall awake from their slumbers, And the faithful of earth go home.

E. O. LINDSAY.
