Chorus. Sign the pledge, 'twill prove a blessing "Tis a record made in heaven, 2 Many a brother, tried and tempted, 3 Reach the land to save the fallen, 82 Speak a word the weak to strengthen, 4 Wave aloft the Temp'rance banner, Keep the signal brightly flashing, "Lend a helping hand." HEN cheerful we meet in our pleasant home, Do we pause to think of the tears that flow Chorus. Let us lend a hand To those who are faint and weary, To those on the pilgrim way. 2 How many a heart in this world of ours, 3 Let us lend a hand, &c. Be willing to stand with an out-stretch'd hand, And the store we have, be it e'er so small, Let us lend a hand, &c. 4 Remember the poor, was the great command For the choicest fruit, and the richest grain, 83 B FANNY CROSBY. "Be Kind to Ane Anither." E kind to ane anither, lads! Be kind to ane anither! Remember, as you wend thro' life, When cares o'ertake him dinna stan' Chorus. Be kind to ane anither, lads! And like a man, put forth your han', 2 An honest heart may whiles gae wrang, But when you tell them o' their faults, The light'ning glance o' angry looks, But put him richt with wisdom's light— Be kind, &c. 3 When trav❜lling o'er life's rugged road, And guard wi' care the souls we love, And like a man, put forth your han', Be kind, &c. HELEN ACQUAROFF 84 "Only an Armour-bearer." NLY an armour-bearer firmly I stand, ON Waiting to follow at the King's command, Marching, if "Onward" shall the order be. Standing by my Captain, serving faithfully. Hear ye the battle cry, "Forward" the call, See, see, the faltering ones: backward they fall; Surely my Captain may depend on me, Though but an armour-bearer I may be. 2 Only an armour-bearer now in the field, Guarding a shining helmet, sword, and shield, Waiting to hear the thrilling battle cry, 66 Ready then to answer, Master, here am I." 3 Only an armour-bearer, yet may I share Mine shall be the honours in the Grand Review. 85 "Dare to be a Daniel." TANDING by a purpose true, Heeding God's command, Honour them the faithful few! All hail to Daniel's band! P. P. BLISS. Dare to be a Daniel ! dare to stand alone! Dare to have a purpose firm; dare to make it known! 2 Many mighty men are lost, Daring not to stand, Who for God had been a host 3 Many giants, great and tall, Dare to be a Daniel, &c. 4 Hold the gospel banner high! On to victory grand ! Satan and his host defy, And shout for Daniel's Band! Dare to be a Daniel, &c. P. P. BLISS. 86 "Wine is a Mocker." INE is a mocker, strong drink is raging; and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise. Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning that they may follow strong drink, that continue until night till wine inflame them. Woe unto him that giveth his neighbour drink, that puttest thy bottle to him, and makest him drunken also. The drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty; and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags. Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath babbling? who hath wounds without a cause? who hath redness of eyes? They that tarry long at the wine. They that go to seek mixed wine. Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in the cup, when it moveth itself aright. At the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder. 87 "I will Arise" (The Drunkard's Resolve). WILL arise and go to my Father, and will say unto Him Father, I have sinned against Heaven and before Thee, And am no more worthy to be called Thy son.. CRYSTAL SPRING HYMNS AND SONGS. 8 "The Crystal Spring." IVE me a draught from the crystal spring, When the rocks and the woods their shadows fling; 2 Give me a draught from the crystal spring, When the leaves of the trees are withering, 3 Give me a draught from the crystal spring, When the flowers are in bloom, and the echoes ring From the woods o'er the verdant lawn. 4 Give me a draught from the crystal spring, When the reapers the song of the harvest sing, 89 "Bright Crystal Water." T. HASTINGS. BRIGHT crystal water, sparkling and free, Dancing and leaping so joyously. Bright Crystal water, foaming in glee, |
