STRIVE TO BE HAPPY . By T . J . SWAIN . Strive to be happy whilst sojourning here . Though sorrow may last for a while , There is yet much remaining to render life dcr . i Despite each misfortune and trial .
Sweet ties of affection that give to our homes The pleasures of innocent joy ; Fond hopes—in the realisation of which AVe endeavour our minds to employ . Strive to be happy ; our lives aro but short , Yet repining will little avail , If we strive to fulfil God's commands as we ought
, He will not permit us to fail . Let the hope of eternity lead us to bend To each sorrow we ' re call'd to endure , And enjoy with thanksgiving each gift He may send—Each blessing our means can procure .
FORGIVE AND FORGET . Br T . J . SWAIN . In ev'ry one ' s life , whate ' er be their lot , There is much to lament and regret ; But oft retrospection its sorrow would lose
If each would forgive and forget . " A ery easy to preach 1 " the vindictive exclaim ; 'Tis harder to practice we know But if we endeavour God ' s grace to obtain . He will on us forbearance bestow . AA e ask in our prayers to be pardon'd for sin
, As we ourselves pardon the frail But do we the latter injunction fulfil ? Alas ! we too frequently fail ! To our own errors blind : to our neighbour ' s alive . How easy it is to condemn , And visit the culprit with storms of abuse
That we make no endeavour to stem . But oh I do we find on perusing God's AA ' ord That its pages such conduct excuse ; How can we expect that our prayers will be heard If Charity ' s task we refuse ? Does not our blest Saviour ' s discourse on tiie Mour . t
Teach the duty of pardoning love ; And did be not say that the cruel and unkind Cannot hope for forgiveness above . Then let us endeavour when trespass'd against To remember the mercies we've met ; And fulfilling our heavenly Master ' s command—Let us strive to forgive and forget .
