A Thankful Heart.

By D. H. Lamson

'Twill give us peace from day to day, Add strength to strength, while in the way Which leads from earth to Heaven above, That home of everlasting love.
It points the soul when bowed with care, To that eternal temple where A living Saviour intercedes, A loving Father grants its needs.
Oh, why should we not thankful be For what we have, for certainly, The ills of life are as a dream, Things are not always what they seem.
How oft the case that blessings come, And without notice one by one Go by, yet fail the soul to bless, Just for the want of thankfulness.
Then let us truly thankful be, For that we have, and cheerfully Praise with the heart when once we know The hand from which our blessings flow. D. H. LAMSON. Olivet, Mich.
