THOU wakest from rosy sleep to play
With bounding heart, my boy!
Beyond thee lies a long bright day
Of summer and of joy.

Thou hast no heavy thought or dream
To cloud thy fearless eye;
Long be it thus-life's early stream
Should still reflect the sky.

(7)

Let ere the cares of life lie dim

On thy young spirit's wings, Now in thy morn forget not him

From whom each pure thought springs:

So in the onward vale of tears,
Where'er thy path may be,

When strength hath bowed to evil years,

He will remember thee.

Hemans.

MORNING PRAYER.

GREAT God, who dwells in heaven above, I humbly kneel to thee,

To thank thee for the care and love

Which thou dost show to me.

When in the early morn I rise
To see another day,

From thy commands so good and wise,

Let not my footsteps stray.

And bless my parents, good and dear,

Teach me to grateful be,

For all the kind and watchful care

They lavish upon me.
