Oh, why are you sad when aA Others ara gay
"a earth darker now than in wifc's early day.
Is the kind hand Withdrawn that upheld US Of


yores
Or the bright laughing sunshine around rs no


mOreg
In all her old beauty-thsn why art th0u sad!
True, some friends, grown faithless, seem cold


snd estranged,
But others are left as whose love is unchanged;
Whose hesrta, through all seasons of good and Of
Like the ivy, around US cling faithfully still!
Let US cherish them deep incur hearts, and be


glad,
For oh with such blessings. how can We be sad
You say you are poor !--ah! have not forgot
That TO struggle with fortune is oft times our lot
But think you that we are less happy than they
Who drag on 'mid splendor their Weariseme day
For their wealth would you barter the bliss we


have had!
oh no: then what need have we TO be sad?
Why fear for the future!-fOr nine years or NOR,
We have managed to keepthe great wolf from


our door;
And why, in the days yet to come, should Ou


state,
Let US give God our thanks for the past, and b.
How much more need have others, than we, to b


sad!
/ know there are seasons when, strive as we will
PTesentiment whispers forever OF i'll;
There are dark, bOding visions OF trouble and pain
That Turk in the heart nll they madden the brain
Wo, wO for that bosom! il cannot be glad
| o God shield as we'll from such cause 70 be sad
Let US humbly hope on; and il dark lie the way
Remember that night is e'er followed by day;
Though tempests and whirlwinds may rage thrs
the skies,
They viii pass, and the sunbeoms again meet on


eyes;


lie, our hearts and our brOws, then, in sunshin


be clad,
For God made US not to be gloomy and sad
