In the dawn of the morning, with eloudless sky, I think of God: His presence is felt in the shining world, e'en every clod Sends forth its green foliage to deck the sod. When at noontide the sun sheds its mellow light, revealing Him, His love fills my heart, for 1 feel He is near: no pathway's dim, For He shows me His will while he reigns within, In the evening of Life, when I reach the tide, why need I sigh? His spirit which guided me far and wide will still be nighg There'll be things unanswered-but God knows why. J. S. ROBINSON. Skg Zinrkrt 13211.
