Not illustrated. 1884 Excerpt: ...HE cup My Father giveth Me!" How deep With holy import are these golden words! Art thou of those who tearful vigils keep, While earth no cup of joy or peace affords? While all around--above--looks dark and drear, --No friend to solace, and no kinsman near? Art thou alone, with none to sympathize, With none to understand thy secret grief, Kindly to ask thee, "Why those bosom sighs, --Whose speechless voice in vain implores relief?" Ponder this word, ay, ponder it again, Till sorrow smile, like sunshine after rain.

"Shall I not drink it?" hear Him meekly say; "Shall I not drink the cup My Father gives?" And canst thou, then, when welcomed, turn away, Nor quaff the cup of life from Him who lives? Sweet pledge of love--Hope's life-draught--until He Who drank Death's cup shall share Life's cup with thee. THE VIGIL. "When my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the Rock that is higher than I."--Psalm Ixi. 2. ATHER, my cup is full! My trembling soul I raise; Oh, save me in this solemn hour, Thy might and love to praise! Father, my cup is full! But One hath drunk before, And for our sins Thy face was hid, When the bitter draught ran o'er. Father, my cup is full! But Thou...
