A Crown of Glory.

A CROWN of bright glory, by faith I now see, A mansion in Heaven preparing for me, Oh, faithful I'll strive, till my Saviour doth come To bear me away to yonder bright home.
Though thorny my pathway, and rugged and drear, Tis' the path of my Saviour, then why should I fear? His promise is faithful, to those who will heed The call of the Saviour, who for us did bleed.
O come unto me, he sweetly doth say. For I am the truth, and the light, and the way. I'll comfort thee, bless thee, and give thee sweet rest All through the lone valley, O lean on my breast.
The voice of my Saviour, falls sweet on mine ear, It bids me rejoice and be of good cheer, "A little while longer, mid scorn and distress, And then a glad welcome in Heaven to rest.
The glory, the glory, I feel it just now, And clouds of bright glory encircle my brow, A foretaste of Heaven, tis joy to my heart, Oh never, dear Saviour, from thee will I part." L. E. MILLNE. Shabbona, Ills.
