FOR WHAT PURPOSE?
There is a why; there is a wherefore;
Have you ever thought it out?’
There is a purpose; there is a there
fore;
In each life—there’s none without. ‘
God has made you for His glory; ° ;
You've a talent you should use, |
But you'll never find your mission ‘
Till His precepts you shall choose.
