A little girl who was a Christian met with an accident with fire and was badly burned. She was taken to the hospital. She suffered very much, yet she did not complain. During all her sufferings she was very happy. One night as she lay in bed, and the other patients were all quiet, her little voice was heard singing,
“Jesus, the name to sinners dear,
The name to sinners given;
It scatters all their guilty fear,
And turns their hell to heaven.”
And then a pause, and nothing was heard but the ticking of the clock, when the little girl again sang,
“Happy, if with my latest breath
I may but speak His name;
Preach Him to all, and call in death,
Behold, behold the Lamb.”
What a happy child to know such a Saviour.
Reader, is Jesus precious to you? Are you saved?
