CHILDHOOD'S FAITH.
As when in childhood deer, Softly at close of, day, I knelt with heart that knew no tear, - Only sweet childhood's ray — O still let me kneel with faith the san«r. Pure and «s xzndefiled, Breathing Thy sweet «nd holy nttme As when a little child; Ask fhee to guide my jwayward feet Still in the same pure way — Clasping that tender faith so* sweet Ever from day to day. —A. O. El Christchurch, July, 1907.
