We see Jesus,
who was made a little lower than the angels
for the suffering of death,
crowned with glory and honour.
Hebrews 2:9
We continue to send our monthly mailing with the simple desire that the material sent would be a help and encouragement to all.

The
Morning Star
The
Morning Star is shining bright, though clouds my sky may fill.
Its
gleams I catch, a pilgrim here, at peace with God and still.
And
soon I know the day must break, yon Star its Herald there
Tells
of the end of earth's long night and each deceiving snare.
Thou
Morning Star! Herald of Day! Lord Jesus, can it be
That aught of
night can chain the soul that's caught one glimpse of Thee?
This
night aye filled with groans and woe, with agony and pain,
Whose
darkest hour records one fact - "The Lord of Life was slain"?
Thou
Morning Star! Lord, fix my gaze, nor ever let me be
By
glittering toys of earth entranced, forgetful, Lord, of Thee.
Amid
earth's roar I hear Thy voice, "The night is round thee now,
But
my day of glory soon shall light thy worn and weary brow."
The
Morning Star! I have its cheer, yet clearer may it shine -
A
light to guide me all the way, lit up by love divine.
I lie
within Thy bosom, Lord, the one Thy love has blessed;
Darkness
may thicken, light is mine to Thine own eternal rest.
"And
the spirit and the Bride say, COME." - Rev.
22:17.
H. C. Anstey, 1868.
