The postman brought a letter here,
It was addressed to me;
I could not wait till everyone
My name on it could see.
I opened it, and found it was
From Cousin Bertha Mae;
She said she hoped to see me soon,
Perhaps within a day.
Another letter I received,
Which is from God above;
It is the Bible and it tells
Me all about His love.
I love it most of all because
I love its Writer best;
He is the Lord of Glory, and
Far dearer than the rest.
