A Prayer for Help.

By L. E. Millne

And wilt thou, O my Father, hear? A suppliant unto thee I cry; I pour my sorrows in thine ear, O help me, Father, from on high.
Thy powerful arm can me uphold, Though Satan's hosts around me roar, O keep me safe within the fold, Till storms are passed, and tempests o'er.
The time of trouble's drawing near, The dragon in great wrath comes down, Be thou, O Lord, my dread and fear, Till I at last receive the crown.
Oh for that home beyond the sky, I'll cheerful bear my sorrows here, There Christ my Saviour reigns on high, And his bright coming draweth near.
A few more days of hate and scorn, A few more days of pain and woe; And then a bright immortal morn Awaits poor pilgrims here below.
L. E. MILLNE.
