The song of Moses celebrated a great so cial deliverance. Israel had been brought out of bondage after four hundred years ot servitude. The song of the lamb celebrated spiritual de liverance. Social and spiritual deliverances are hallmarks of Christ's gospel. No worker for the spiritual welfare for souls can ignore social conditions. No social worker may forget that the soul of all reforma tion is the reformation of the soul. Missions overseas mani fest in striking manner this twofold redemption. The phy sical miseries of the backward races appeal to our sense of at trusion. The social effect of the gospel Is great. Men are up lifted, clothed and fed. But the song of Moses must always be supplemented by the song of the lamb. Civilization in itself is inadequate. You must change the heart if you would change the man and the heart change and the social change should go hand In hand. "Far, far away, like bells at evening pealing, The voice of Jesus sounds o'er land and sea, And weary souls by thousands meekly stealing Kind Shepherd, turn their weary steps to Thee." Amen.
