| Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers. (3 John 5) |
| Gideon threshed wheat by the winepress, to hide it from the Midianites. And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him, and said unto him, The Lord is with thee, thou mighty man of valor. (Judg. 6:11‑12) |
Despise no soul; God scorneth none —
His image is on every one;
In shadows where no trumpet swells,
This moment, many a great heart dwells. |
Despise no task, however small —
Christ honors each and uses all;
What builds the story of the land?
The patient toil of unknown hands. |
