SONGS FOR THE

Thy word has promised all I need,
More than a father’s, mother’s care;

Thou wilt the hungry orphan feed,
And always listen to his prayer.

THE LOVE oF CHRIST.
Dear Mary, come to me,
And listen while I tell
Of Him who died upon the tree,
To save your soul from hell.

He saw our wretched state,
And felt his pity move ;

Poor he became, though once so great,
To show his matchless love.

In Bethlehem he was born,
A feeble infant child ;

Then lived a life exposed to scorn,
Though gentle, meek, and mild.

On Calvary he died,
A sacrifice for sin ; 3
There Jesus Christ was crucified,
That we might glory gain.

Then love this gracious Friend,
And seek his saving grace ;

He'll guide you safely to the end,

And you shall see his face. E. M.
