Go, labour on ; 'tis not for nought : Thy earthly loss is heavenly gain. Men heed thee, love thee, praise thee not. The Master praises : what are men...
Pagina 6 - Therefore I come, Thy gentle call obeying, And lay my sins and sorrows at Thy feet, On everlasting strength my weakness staying, Clothed in Thy robe of righteousness complete ; Then rising and refreshed, I leave Thy throne, And follow on to know as I am known ! MINISTRY.
Pagina 104 - So I go on not knowing ! I would not if I might ; I would rather walk in the dark, with God, than go alone in the light . I would rather walk with Him by faith, than walk alone by sight.
Pagina 19 - Men die in darkness at your side, Without a hope to cheer the tomb ; Take up the torch, and wave it wide, The torch that lights time's thickest gloom.
Pagina 27 - I thought, when the Master Builder Comes down His temple to view, To see what rents must be mended, And what must be builded anew ; Perhaps, as He looks o'er the building, He will bring my work to the light, And seeing the marring and bungling, And how far it...
