' I paused a moment and stopped to think And then watching the people there, I found that many were sad and wan j And their faces were carved with care. JF I wondered whatever made It thus, - .-. f That the people should worry so; : f Can they not enjoy the lovely breeze . Nor the beautiful sunlight's glow? Must they ever walk the marts of trade With no time for the finer things J And know they not the joy of a book, f Nor the pleasure a plctuie brings? And 'twas then I had another thought That I've held quite tight to my breast, For I knew that I was so selfish And I prayed as I went to rest, Jfi I said, "Oh God, give us eart tilings rest And take my Impatience from me; Help me to help as I go through life Yes, to help Thy sons know Thee."
