| Seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not. (Jer. 45:5) |
| They that buy, as though they possessed not; and they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away. (1 Cor. 7:30‑31) |
| God having provided some better thing for us. (Heb. 11:40) |
Forever and forever, Lord, with Thee!
Ah then, how trite all life’s pursuits will
seem!
One breath of air celestial, pure and free,
And all the past will vanish as a dream. |
So help me live, dear Savior, day by day,
As one who waits the coming of the dawn;
Thy glory now does shed a blessed ray
Upon my path, and helps me to go on. |
