Religion! in its blessed rayAll thought of hopeless sorrow flies,Despair and anguish melt awayWhere’er its healing beams arise.How dark our sinful world would be-A flowerless desert, dry and drear!Did not this light, O God, from theeIts gloom dispel, its aspect cheer. Oh! by it many a heart is soothed,Which else would be […]

Christian Worship It Is I, Be Not Afraid. When Power Divine, in mortal form,Hushed with a word the raging storm,In soothing accents Jesus said,Lo, it is I!-be not afraid. So, when in silence nature sleeps,And his lone watch the mourner keeps,One thought, shall every pang remove-Trust, feeble man, thy Maker’s love. Blessed be the voice […]

Christian Worship Wisdom And Virtue Sought From God. Supreme and universal Light!Fountain of reason!

May our expanded souls disclaimThe narrow view, the […]

Christian Worship Permanence Of Early Religious Impressions. While yet the youthful spirit bearsThe image of its God within,And uneffaced that beauty wearsSo soon to be destroyed by sin;- Then is the time for faith and loveTo take in charge their precious care,Teach the young eye to look above,Teach the young knee to bend in prayer.
