Seite 3 - True love's the gift which God has given To man alone beneath the heaven : It is not fantasy's hot fire, Whose wishes, soon as granted, fly ; It liveth not in fierce desire, With dead desire it doth not die ; It is the secret sympathy, The silver link,1 the silken tie, Which heart to heart, and mind to mind, In body and in soul can bind.
Seite 57 - Yet he was kind, or, if severe in aught, The love he bore to learning was in fault ; The village all declared how much he knew ; 'Twas certain he could write and cipher too ; Lands he could measure, terms and tides presage, And e'en the story ran that he could gauge...

Seite 68 - This is the gospel of labor ! ring it, ye bells of the kirk : The Lord of Love came down from above, to live with the men who work. This is the rose that He planted, here in the thorn-cursed soil — Heaven is blest with perfect rest, but the blessing of Earth is toil.
Seite 133 - LORD, I care not for riches, Neither silver nor gold ; I would make sure of heaven, I would enter the fold. In the book of thy kingdom, With its pages so fair. Tell me, Jesus, my Saviour, Is my name written there?
Seite 38 - The blessing of him who was about to perish came upon me, and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.
