"Life," Days ma , be long and cloudy, Night be, dark and drear, Pleasures few and illusive Sorrows abundantly near. But what is the use of repinings ? Darkness give's way to dawn, All clouds have silver linings That appear when the storm is gone. Backs were made or the burdens, So sante- wise mac has said, Troubles are God's distinguished blessings Showered upon our heads. Sometimes the think that others' Lives flow along like a soug; Appearances often deceive us, \Vs may be entirely wrong, Perhaps we're the one who is envied, Tho' we feel so downcast and blue, And shouldn't we really be thankful For friends, who are steadfast and true ? Ourchildren, the light of our fireside, Their smiles, their prattle and play ? Our work and strength, that given. us To cheerfully do it each day ? Would we really change place with another heart ? Could we know his innermost Still waters run deepest, We may only know in part, The heartaches, sorrows and longings That he bravely tries to hide 'Neath a mask of _apparent brightness To the 13•aping world outside. of our lives were made all sunshine 'iVithout a little shade, Would we enjoy the blessings The Heavenly Father gave ? Would we love and help the fallen ones Lea fortunate and weak ? Or persuade a wayward brother A starry crown to seek ? We each must have our struggles, If we get the most from life, And win the reward that is promised To those "who have fought the good fight," The sante road we oft times find dreary Was trod by the Saints above Who now are waiting our coming en the Beautiful 'City of God.
