Let your Light Shine.

By J. D. Hough

WHILE passing down the stream of time, In days and weeks and months and years, We are onward hastening to that clime, Where God shall wipe away our tears.
If we are of that humble few, That live by faith, and not by sight, Who would our Saviour's track pursue, Count all God's laws and precepts right,
Though we are wronged in many a way Let us with Christ-like meekness bear What evil ones against us say; That we may in God's promise share.
May all my works and actions be, A pattern of my heavenly King, That all, the light in me may see, And so to Christ their homage bring.
The prayers of all I humbly crave, Who in God's promises can hope, That I sustaining grace may have, To cheer me on and buoy me up,
Till Christ our Saviour shall proclaim Deliverance to his followers true, And then may my unworthy name Be numbered with the faithful few. J. D. Hough. Rochester, Mich.
