Էջ 57 - Born within a lowly stable, where the cattle round Me stood, Trained a carpenter in Nazareth, I have toiled, and found it good. "They who tread the path of labor follow where My feet have trod; They who work without complaining do the holy will of God. " Where the many toil together, there am I among My own ; Where the tired workman sleepeth, there am I with him alone.
Էջ 67 - This is the gospel of labor ! ring it, ye bells of the kirk : The Lord of Love came down from above, to live with the men who work. This is the rose that He planted, here in the thorn-cursed soil — Heaven is blest with perfect rest, but the blessing of Earth is toil.
Էջ 37 - Can it be the mighty Master spake such simple words as these ? Can it be that men must seek Him, at their toil, 'mid rocks and trees...
Էջ 5 - Jesus says:" It is to the fifth of these Sayings of Jesus that the following poem refers. <+• A LOST WORD OF JESUS LJEAR a word that Jesus spake Eighteen centuries ago, Where the crimson lilies blow Round the blue Tiberian lake : There the bread of life he brake, Through the fields of harvest walking With His lowly comrades, talking Of the secret thoughts that feed Weary hearts in time of need. Art thou hungry ? Come and take ; Hear the word that Jesus spake...
Էջ 64 - I think the King of that country comes out from his tireless host, And walks in this world of the weary, as if He loved it the most ; For here in the dusty confusion, with eyes that are heavy and dim, He meets again the labouring men who are looking and longing for Him.
Էջ 59 - Where the many toil together, there am I among My own ; Where the tired workman sleepeth, there am I with him alone. " I, the peace that passeth knowledge, dwell amid the daily strife ; I, the bread of heaven, am broken in the sacrament of life. "Every task, however simple, sets the soul that does it free ; Every deed of love and mercy, done to man, is done to Me.
Էջ 65 - But I think the king of that country comes out from his tireless host And walks in this world of the weary, as if he loved it the most: For here in the dusty confusion, with eyes that are heavy and dim He meets again the laboring men who are looking and longing for Him. He cancels the curse of Eden, and brings them a blessing instead, Blessed are they that labor for Jesus partakes of their bread, He puts His hand to their burdens, He enters their homes at night : Who does his best shall have as his...
Էջ 66 - His presence, and patience return at His touch, And manifold sins be forgiven to those who love Him much; And the cries of envy and anger will change to the songs of cheer, For the toiling age will forget its rage, when the Prince of Peace draws near. This is the gospel of...
Էջ 5 - Yet this word the Master said, Long ago and far away, Silent and forgotten lay Buried with the silent dead, — Where the sands of Egypt spread, Sea-like, tawny billows heaping Over ancient cities sleeping; While the River Nile between Rolls its summer flood of green, Rolls its autumn flood of red...
Էջ 47 - Every mason in the quarry, every builder on the shore, Every chopper in the palm-grove, every raftsman at the oar — Hewing wood and drawing water, splitting stones and cleaving sod — All the dusty ranks of labor, in the regiment of God, March together toward His triumph, do the task His hands prepare : Honest toil is holy service ; faithful work is praise and prayer.
