[WKITTKX FOR THE WEEKLY.}
O Lord, thy Providence has c!\lle<l
Us from these sacred walls to go;
We leave then) with a joy and grief
For Thou hast blessed us here we
know.
Around these altars memory hangs
The da rest idols we have known;
With smiles and tears so oft we’ve
come
Through many years now past and
gone.
Our fathers souls ha ve feasted here
And fount; drank full deep the gospel
Here mother oft has dwelt in prayei
And poured her hearts libation out.
Here you'll has owned itself to love—
These walls stand witness to tin
vow
How each, responding to the pledge
Said yes. low-toned or with a how.
And from these holy preeinets laun¬
ched,
With hearts as blithe ; s linnets
We’ve wing, clad,
seen return, in mourning
To bring their first-horn offering.
They haunt us . yet—til© smiles of
friends »
That shone oft in this hallowed
And place, how
we remember we came
To see the last—their pallid face.
Here we found our Kbinezer;
Here we had faith our Pisgah seemed view; almost
Here, when
. doubting,
We have come, it to renew.
Here we’ve met those near and dea
est;
Heard their voices sing His praise:
Here we’ve raised the voice of mourn¬
ing
For Hie ending of their days.
Scenes like these press hard upon it:
As wo quit these sacred walls;
Sacred by a thousand memories,
Yea, lay countless gospel calls.
But departing, faro thee well,
Hallowed-ever he thy place; alway,
Angels guard thy children
Till at home through Jesus’grace.
