PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY.


Humbly desirous of prom ~ ting Christian pie­ty


and morality in th eir primitive purity, the


UndersifJned do solemnly acknowledg e and em­brace


tile PRINCIPl. ES, SENT I M EN~ I'S, and DU­TIES


declared in the following


Let the world despise and leave me;


They have left my Savior too;


Human bopes and looks deceive me;


Thou art not, like them, untrue;


And while thou shalt smile on me,


God of wisdom, love, and might,


Friends may hate, and foes may scorn me,


Show Ihy ,~ ace and all is right.


Jesus- I my cross have taken,


. All to ' leave and follow thee;


Naked, poor, despised, forsaken,


Thou from hence my all shalt be.


Perish every fond ambition,


All I've sought, or hoped, or known;


Yet how rich is my condition;


God and heaven are all my own!


, Go, then, earthly fame and treasure;


Come, disaster, scorn, and pain;


In thy service pain is pleasure,


With thy favor loss is gain.


I have call'd thee Abba Father ;


I have set my heart on thee;


Storms may howl, and clouds may gather ;


All must work for good 10 mol


Soul, then know thy full salvation,


Rise o'er sin, and fear, and carol;


Joy to find in every station,


Something stillto do or bear.


Think what spirit dwells within thee;


Think what heavenly bliss is thine ;


Th ink that Jesus died to save thee;


Child of heaven" canst thou repine?


Haste thee' on, from grace to glory,


Arm'd by faith, and wing'd by prayer,


Heaven's eternal day beforethee, .


God' s own'hand shall guide thee there,


Soon shall close thy earthly mission,


Soon shall pass thy pilgrim days,


Hope shall change to glad fruition,


Faith to sight, and prayer to praise!


[ The following beautiful and feeling Jines, however


familiar, will never be read withoutpleasureand pro­fit.


They breathe the pure feelings of a soul heav­enward


bound, and contain rich and meet poetry to


accompany the co Practical Christian" on its first


pilgrimageof hope and love.] G. W. s.
